~ From Me, To You ~

Chapter One:
Im fine. Dont worry an eighteen year old girl chuckled as she pulled her mothers hand away from
her forehead
Im not convinced Tiffany. What if you faint again her mother scolded
Then Id already be in the hospital Tiffany re-assured
Thats going to calm her down a LOT an older male said sarcastically
Tiffany chuckled
Well it was the best I could come up with
Tiffany are you sure youre going to be okay? her mother asked again
Yes Umma Tiffany rolled her eyes
The mother bit her lower lip and frowned
She wont be able to do anything stupid here mom the male reassured
The mother nodded hesitantly before walking out of the room
At least I hope she wont he said as he shot a glare at Tiffany
Tiffany held her hands up defensively as the blonde boy and her mother walked out of the room
Finally Tiffany sighed as she gave herself a face palm
Heheh. I think I should be saying that a voice interrupted
Tiffany looked over to her right where the voice came from
Im sorry, couldnt help myself the owner of the voice chuckled apologetically
The voice belonged to a young girl, maybe a year older then her, on the bed besides Tiffanys. The
owner had short black hair with blonde tips and a bang fringe. She had milky white skin and pearl
white teeth with her bottom row having cutely crooked strays. Along her arm, Tiffany noticed that
she also had a few needles dug into her arms
Im sorry about my mother and my brother disturbing your rest Tiffany apologized sincerely
The girl just giggled at Tiffanys reaction
Its okay. Beats the constant sound of the heart monitors any day the girl smiled
Tiffany smiled at the girls remark

Seems to be like your first time in hospital, Tiffany the girl kept up a conversation
Tiffany was taken aback by the fact that this girl knew her name
Oh sorry. I just heard your mom call you by your name. Im Taeyeon, Kim Taeyeon the girl held out
her hand as a greeting
Its okay. It just caught off guard a little. Im Tiffany, Hwang Tiffany Tiffany responded to the
outstretched hand and gave a quick hand shake
So is it your first time here? Taeyeon asked again after they got the greetings over and done with
Yeah... I was admitted to hospital because I fell unconscious. My mother was over protective and
insisted that I stay here for a while Tiffany smiled at the memory of her mother
I see. Well just a tip, dont even bother opening the food here. Just leave it aside for the nurses to
come get it. Ill show you a place where you can get some proper food Taeyeon chuckled
Thanks. Id appreciate that Tiffany smiled at her new found friend

Psst. Sleepy head. Wake up Taeyeon whispered as she nudged the sleeping Tiffany
Oh, Taeyeon Tiffany sat up and tried to wake herself up
Time for dinner Taeyeon smiled as she tugged on Tiffanys hand
Tiffany looked at the clock that hung above the room to see that it was indeed time for dinner
Bring something warm Taeyeon whispered as she went to check the hallway outside the ward
Tiffany noticed Taeyeon wearing some skinny jeans with a big blue hoodie over her head.
Psst hurry Taeyeon whispered
Tiffany got out of her bed and walked over to the closet to grab a jacket before following behind
Taeyeon
Okay we have exactly three minutes before the new shift comes. Okay? Taeyeon whispered
urgently
Tiffany nodded
3...2...1... Go! and with that Taeyeon quickly snuck out of the ward and dashed down the hallways.
Tiffany wasnt too far behind

As they ran down the hallway of the hospital they were careful not to bump into any nurses or
doctors. They peeped on the side of the walls before quickly running for cover. They also didnt use
the elevator and instead took the stairs
Finally they reached the bottom floor near the reception and waiting room
Okay act casual Taeyeon told Tiffany
Tiffany nodded before strutting out into the waiting room
Taeyeon scurried beside her
Too casual Taeyeon whispered
Tiffany then lessoned her struts and started to walk normally as she followed Taeyeon outside
Ahhh... Finally Taeyeon said as she stretched in the open
Tiffany was honestly glad to be out of the miserable ward and out in the open again. She really
didnt understand why her mother had sent her to stay in the hospital
Now for some real food Taeyeon exclaimed as she skipped down the street
You sure are comfortable with a stranger Tiffany remarked at Taeyeons friendliness with her
Taeyeon stopped her skipping and flashed Tiffany a pearly white smile
Youre my friend not a stranger Taeyeon said confidently before skipping down the street again
Tiffany smiled at Taeyeons declaration of friendship
As the two were walking down the street, Taeyeon paused in front of an open restaurant
Hyoyeon! Yoona! Taeyeon called out as she took a seat
Tiffany hesitantly followed
The food here is great Taeyeon reassured as two girls around their age walked up to their table
Aish. Taeyeon you really got to stop doing this. It wont be long before you get caught the girl with
the black hair scolded
Well then I better make the most of it Taeyeon rebutted
We should really stop serving her the girl with the brown hair muttered
Taeyeon chuckled
Then an older man approached them
Yah! Taeyeon! You should have told me you were coming the man smiled as he patted Taeyeons
head

Tiffany felt a little left out of the reunion and fidgeted her feet uncomfortably
Oh by the way everyone, this is Tiffany Hwang. A new friend of mine Taeyeon gestured to Tiffany
Tiffany gave a nervous smile before greeting them
Hello Tiffany said nervously
The three girls gave Tiffany a reassuring smile
Nice to meet you. Im Im Yoona the girl with the black hair introduced herself
Im Kim Hyoyeon the girl with the brown hair smiled
And I'm Timmy the older man gave a peace sign
And together they make the idiots team Taeyeon said proudly as she clapped
All three of the girls shot her a glare, which only caused her to laugh loudly
Nice to meet you all Tiffany relaxed a little after the introduction
So since Taeyeon brought you here, you must be from the hospital? Timmy asked curiously
Tiffany nodded
I was just admitted in today Tiffany smiled
I see. Have you tasted the food? Hyoyeon asked
Tiffany shook her head
I was advised not to
Good. Their food is HORRIBLE Yoona exclaimed
Taeyeon, Timmy and Hyoyeon nodded in agreement
Oh? Tiffany raised both her eyebrows in surprise
Weve been admitted to the hospital before. Well except Yoona. Taeyeon brought her a sample
once Hyoyeon chuckled
Taeyeon smirked at the memory
I still dont believe you can call something like that food Yoona shook her head in disappointment
Talking about food. You two must be hungry. Well give you our best dish, just wait two moments
Timmy said before he dashed back into the kitchen
He then popped her head back out
Youre not allergic to anything are you? Yuri called out

Yoona and Hyoyeon looked at Tiffany expectantly


Tiffany shook her head
All clear! Yoona called back
Timmy then made an ok sign with his fingers before disappearing again in the kitchen
Really Taeyeon. You shouldnt bring patients out in the cold Hyoyeon then started to scold
Taeyeon
Taeyeon gave Hyoyeon an innocent pout
Its okay. Im completely fine. I just have over protective parents... thats all Tiffany reassured
Oh. Well they must have a reason for sending you there in the first place Yoona crossed her arms
and listened attentively
I just fell unconscious from dehydration, thats all Tiffany smiled
Have you been drinking plenty of water? Hyoyeon asked worriedly
Tiffany didnt answer that
They dont make her drink. Its more... inserted Tiffany tried to find the right words
They jabbed needles into her and filled her up with water. Kinda like a water balloon Taeyeon
explained
Water balloon? Yoona raised her eyebrow
Jab the hose in and then fill it up with water. I see no difference Taeyeon shrugged
Tiffany giggled at Taeyeons description
What about you. Still getting needles? Hyoyeon asked Taeyeon
Taeyeon let out a sigh
They switched to tablets. Now I have to taste the chemicals Taeyeon made a disgusted face
It was then that Tiffany realised that she didnt know why Taeyeon was admitted to the hospital
Okay. Two bowls of ramen Timmy style Timmy interrupted Tiffanys thought and set down two
bowls of piping hot ramen
Wow Tiffany exclaimed
Enjoy Timmy smiled
Emm. Yoona? Hyoyeon? I think you have customers? Taeyeon said as she pointed to the people in
the seats

Oh right. Well enjoy Hyoyeon said before dashing off to take their orders
Timmy then dashed back into the kitchen to prepare the orders while Yoona took them out to the
customers
Well eat up. This is what you call real food Taeyeon smiled as she rubbed her hands together
Thanks Tiffany smiled as she took up her chopsticks and began to eat

Shhh... Taeyeon hushed at she peeked over the side of the wall
Taeyeon and Tiffany were back from eating and were trying to sneak back into the hospital. It was a
lot harder now as visiting hours were over and a lot more nurses were around
Slowly and steadily Taeyeon and Tiffany crept down the last hallway to their room
Ahem
Taeyeon and Tiffany jumped at the sound behind them
Taeyeon... I see youve disregarded my warnings... again
Taeyeon slowly turned around behind her and swallowed hard when she saw who it was
A tall, skinny, short-hair brunette, around her early twenties was towering over her with her arms
crossed
Tiffany honestly felt as though she had been caught for murder as a cold gush of wind blew past her
as she turned to see the nurse glaring down at her
Oh hey Sooyoung-ah... Taeyeon greeted casually but nervously
Sooyoung raised her eyebrow accusingly at Taeyeon
I was just... ermm... going to the vending machine to get some... snacks Taeyeon lied
Where are your snacks then? Sooyoung questioned
We... ate them Taeyeon gave a wide smile
Uh huh. Well I just got a call from Timmy. Apparently it wasnt all you ate Sooyoung stuck her
tongue on the side of her cheek making and annoyed expression
That snitch Taeyeon grumbled
Did you really have to drag Tiffany along with you? One patient is enough to deal with Sooyoung
groaned

Well I just didnt want her to starve Taeyeon explained


Tiffany said nothing on the matter
You know that youre not supposed to be out there Sooyoung gave a worried sigh
I know I know. But you know how I cant take the food in here Taeyeon slumped her shoulders
down guiltily
Ill let you off this last time. If youre hungry call for me and Ill bring food for you Sooyoung gave a
defeated sigh
I just didnt want to trouble you Taeyeon shrugged
Araso. Go now before someone else catches you Sooyoung said as she shooed Taeyeon and
Tiffany away
Taeyeon gave Sooyoung a quick hug before dragging Tiffany back into the room
Tiffany let out a relieved sigh
Sooyoungs a friend of mine dont worry Taeyeon chuckled as she jumped back into her bed
A thought then occurred to Tiffany
You sure seem friendly with a lot of people here? Tiffanys comment had become a question
Taeyeon nodded
I try to get to know everyone around me
Oh... Tiffany said hesitantly
Youre wondering why Im in here arent you? Taeyeon asked Tiffany solemnly
Em... If you dont mind me... you know its your business and... Tiffanys voice trailed off
Taeyeon chuckled
Lets just say... Here is my second home... Im accident prone Taeyeon joked
Tiffany smiled at Taeyeons joke about herself

The next day Tiffanys mother came to visit her


Oh honey, are you feeling better now? her mother panicked frantically
Mom. Im okay. The doctors and nurses were really nice. I also met a friend here too Tiffany tried
to calm her down
Oh. A friend?
Tiffany nodded
Meet Taeyeon Tiffany said proudly as she gestured to the bed beside
Hello Mrs Hwang Taeyeon greeted as she jumped from her bed
Oh hello Taeyeon. Thank you for looking after my daughter. I hope she wasnt much trouble the
mother thanked
No trouble at all. Kept me company Taeyeon smiled
Thank you the mother thanked again before she turned back to Tiffany
Pack your things. Its time to go home her mother said
Tiffany nodded at her mothers order and started to pack her stuff when she noticed Taeyeon
looking at her.
Be sure to visit Taeyeon beamed as Tiffany looked at her
Tiffany smiled at Taeyeons words
I will Tiffany nodded
Taeyeon held out her pinky
Promise? Taeyeon smiled
Promise Tiffany smiled back as she took the pinky with her own and made the promise

Unfortunately Tiffany had to move to America soon after she was out of the hospital

Chapter Two:
Tiffany! Tiffany! Hey over here!
Tiffany was exiting the airport when she heard another girl call for her
Oh Yuri! Tiffany exclaimed when she saw the tall black haired figure
Welcome back to Korea. Still cant believe its been three years Yuri sighed as she gave Tiffany a
tight hug
Hehe. Yeah. Three years Tiffany struggled out of her grip
Yuri however didnt let go
Im sorry to hear about... you know Yuri mumbled into Tiffanys ear
Its okay... No ones perfect Tiffany smiled as she patted Yuris back
Yuri pulled away and looked into Tiffanys eyes
When will you be admitted?
Tiffany shrugged
I should probably go as soon as possible
Tiffany could see the sadness in Yuris eyes
Im sure there will be someone soon. Just, have to wait Tiffany reassured
Yuri nodded twice before returning a smile
Well lets get you rested. Im sure youre tired from your trip Yuri beamed as she took Tiffanys
luggage and headed for her Mercedes in the car park
Tiffany gave a bright smile as she fixed her hair and entered the passenger seat

Where you going Tiff? Yuri asked as she saw Tiffany walking out the door with her luggage
Like I said. The sooner the better Tiffany answered back with a nervous smile
Yuri came up to give Tiffany another hug
Ill come and visit Yuri whispered
Thanks Tiffany mumbled through Yuris embrace

Do you want me to take you? Yuri pulled Tiffany from her arms
No thanks. Im visiting a place first. Tiffany answered as she began to walk out
Ill see you tomorrow Yuri said sadly
Thanks Tiffany called back before entering the taxi which was waiting for her outside

The taxi pulled up at a restaurant where Taeyeon had taken Tiffany before. It had changed quite
drastically. It was renovated now to look like a high class private restaurant. There was even a
bouncer in the front controlling the people.
Wow Tiffany exclaimed
Psst. You want to get in faster? A figure beside Tiffany whispered
Tiffany jumped at the sudden noise beside her. She looked over to see a boy with an oversized
hoodie covering his cap. He was wearing simple clothing and yet still looked fashionable
Emm. I just wanted to visit and ask a few questions thats all Tiffany replied
Okay then. Come with me The figure said proudly as he grabbed Tiffanys hand and dragged her to
the front
Tiffany began to panic and pulled her hand away
Dont worry Im only taking you inside. Once in there Ill let you do whatever you like the boy
reassured as he walked up to the bouncer
The bouncer seemed to recognise the boy and opened the door for him. He then waved at Tiffany to
follow
Shes with me the boy said to the bouncer
The bouncer nodded as he escorted Tiffany inside
As Tiffany entered the restaurant she saw that the inside was warm and decorated in expensive
decor
Okay see you later the boy said as he disappeared to the counter
Tiffany stood there awestruck at the changes the once small restaurant had gone through
Table to one miss? a girl asked
Emm. Im wondering who the manger here is Tiffany said hesitantly
The girl was staring at Tiffany sceptically

You seem familiar the girl mumbled to herself


Tiffany smiled nervously as she took a good look at the girl. She looked oddly familiar too
Yoona? Tiffany exclaimed when she recognised who it was
Youre Taeyeons hospital buddy arent you? the girl exclaimed back
Yoona what are you doing? another girl came up and scolded
Oh, sorry to keep you waiting. Table for one? the girl apologized and offered
Tiffany shook her head
Hyoyeon look! Its Taeyeons buddy. You know, the one who was filled up like a water balloon
Yoona said as she pointed at Tiffany
Tiffany smiled at the memory of Taeyeons description
Ohhhhhhh. Water balloon! Long time no see! Come come. You have to meet Timmy Hyoyeon said
as she dragged Tiffany along
Tiffany frowned at her new found nickname as Yoona and Hyoyeon dragged her into the kitchen
Timmy! Water balloon is here! Hyoyeon yelled
Water balloon? a deeper voice called out
Taeyeons buddy Yoona explained
OH! the deeper voice exclaimed
Not long after that a figure emerged from the hot steam of the cooking food
My my my. Its nice to see you again... ermm... T-T-Talia? the man struggled to remember Tiffanys
name
Tiffany Tiffany corrected with a smile
Ah sorry Tiffany. Its just been a long time you see the man apologized
Timmy want us to make the food? Hyoyeon offered
Oh yes please Timmy said as he moved out of the way
So how you been? Timmy asked Tiffany
Great. I havent been in Korea for about 3 years now Tiffany smiled
Oh. Thats why you didnt come visit. I was starting to think you didnt like the food Timmy pouted
Ew. Gross a voice boomed from behind Tiffany
Tiffany turned around to see the boy who helped her before

This time Tiffany didnt see a boy. It was actually a girl


The girl took off her hood and her cap and gave Timmy a smile
Well thats not nice Taeyeon Timmy put his hands on his waist
Taeyeon? Tiffany whispered as she took a closer look at the girl
Oh its you. Hello the girl greeted
Timmy came from behind the girl and smacked the back of her head
Ow! What was that for? the girl exclaimed
Its water balloon! Dont you recognise her? Timmy scolded
The girl raised her eyebrow as she took a closer step towards Tiffany.
Hmmm the girl pondered
Tiffany started to panic
The girl stare was too intense
Then, out of nowhere. The girl pulled a weird face
Timmy once again hit the back of her head as the girl fell forward
Rude! Timmy exclaimed
Youre destroying my brain cells by doing that you know. You probably did that to Yoona. Thats
why she ended up the way she is now the girl complained
Hey! Yoona came from the kitchen holding a pan and aiming for the girl
Tiffany smiled at the three arguing and the girl caught sight of this
Tiffany! the girl exclaimed as she ran to hug her
Tiffany stumbled back a few steps from the impact
Id recognise those eye smiles anywhere. Remember me? Its me Taeyeon the girl said impatiently
Tiffany giggled at her impatience
Long time no see Taeyeon Tiffany answered back
Taeyeon then stepped back from the hug and frowned at Tiffany
Yeah. Long time she gave an accusing look
Tiffany gulped. She knew what Taeyeon was implying

Give the girl a break. She came back from America not too long ago Timmy chuckled as he pat
Taeyeons back
Oh Taeyeon said as she softened her expression
Well thats understandable then Taeyeon smiled as she gave Tiffany another hug
As the night went on it was time for them to leave
Hope to see you sometime Taeyeon called out before disappearing into the night
Oh em... Bye Tiffany didnt have enough time to say anything before Taeyeon was out of sight
Tiffany took a deep breath as she started making her way to the hospital

Oh. Tiffany Hwang right? Were expecting you the nurse said
Tiffany gave a nervous smile as the nurse walked her to her new room
As they were walking they heard people quarrelling
Im sorry. I got caught up. I met an old friend. Please dont punish me
Tiffany recognised the voice
As they were walking closer and closer to the two people Tiffany recognised the two
Oh Taeyeon Tiffany exclaimed
The two people looked over to Tiffany who had interrupted them
Tiffany. Hi Taeyeon said as she ran over to her
Tiffany looked at the other person. It was the nurse, Sooyoung
Oh. Long time no see Sooyoung greeted
The nurse which was escorting Tiffany went up and gave Taeyeon a flick to the head
Did you sneak out again? the nurse narrowed her eyes
Taeyeon hid behind Tiffany and nodded nervously
Sooyoung let out a chuckle
Youre doomed Taeyeon Sooyoung commented
Taeyeon gulped and nodded

Out of all the people it had to be HellSica Taeyeon sighed


HellSica? Tiffany raised her eyebrow
Taeyeon nodded as she pointed to the nurse
Jessica Jung. The most evil nurse in all of Korea Taeyeon whispered
Sooyoung let out a laugh
Come now Taeyeon. Stop scaring her and go back to your room Sooyoung said as she dragged
Taeyeons ear
Ow! Ow! Owwww! This isnt how you treat a patient Taeyeon complained as she went back to her
room
Tiffany finally had a thought
Taeyeon is still here after three years? Tiffany asked herself
Jessica caught part of Tiffanys sentence and gave a sigh
She wont stay here for much longer though Jessica said before walking off again
Tiffany raised her eyebrow
Oh thats good Tiffany smiled as she caught up
Jessica stopped walking and gave Tiffany a questionable look
Obviously understanding that Tiffany had misunderstood she sighed
Heres your room Jessica said as she opened a door
Thanks Tiffany thanked as she put her things inside
Have a good nights rest. The doctors will come and talk to you tomorrow Jessica said before she
walked out again
Tiffany took a deep breath as she set her stuff down
My new home Tiffany said as she got ready to get to sleep

Okay. Thanks doctor Tiffany said after the doctors explained her condition
As soon as we have a compatible donor we will start the operation. For now, stay here and well
monitor your condition the doctor repeated before he hung the clipboard on the side of the bed
and walked out
Tiffany sighed
Out of all the diseases I could have got, it had to be a heart disease Tiffany whispered to herself
Psst
Tiffany raised her eyebrow at the noise
Over here
Tiffany looked at the door to see Taeyeon standing there
I didnt know you were admitted here Taeyeon said as she walked up and took the seat next to her
Yeah... I was going to tell you last night but you left before I could Tiffany smiled
Ohhh Taeyeon exclaimed
Mianhe. I was already late and I knew Jessica had her shift that night so I rushed Taeyeon laughed
nervously
Tiffany giggled
Its okay
Taeyeon sat there drawing imaginary circles on the bed with her finger
So how was it in America? Taeyeon suddenly asked
Great... I guess... very different from here Tiffany answered
So Ive heard. I wish I could see it Taeyeon smiled sympathetically
Im sure you will get to see it. I can call my family to take you around Tiffany offered
Taeyeon gave a slow shake of the head
Its okay. I dont think Ill be able to go
Tiffany stared at Taeyeon curiously
I cant go because Sooyoung would miss me too much Taeyeon explained
Tiffany tilted her head to the side
Haha. Dont worry about it Taeyeon chuckled
Tiffany nodded slowly

So is your mom being over protective again? Taeyeon asked


Tiffany sighed
No, actually I have a reason to be here
Oh. I see Taeyeon awkwardly looked down
Well I hope you get well soon Taeyeon gave an awkward smile
Tiffany smiled back but it didnt last long
I highly doubt it Tiffany suddenly said
Taeyeon stared up into Tiffanys eyes
Oh Im sorry. Taeyeon apologized
Its okay Tiffany reassured
There was an awkward silence after that
Arent you going to ask? Tiffany suddenly broke the silence
Taeyeon just smiled at her sweetly
Its not my business. If you want to tell me you want to. Ill be sure to listen Taeyeon explained
Tiffany smiled at Taeyeons response
Thanks

Two weeks later

And then Yoona completely drenched the guy in hot ramen coup Taeyeon then burst out into
laughter
Tiffany joined her as well
Taeyeon. Taeyeon! a nurse called out
Taeyeon let out a groan
The door then opened and Sooyoung stepped in
Time for your tablets Sooyoung said as she held up a small container
I really dont see a point in drinking them Soo Taeyeon whined

Sooyoung gave a sad smile


Well I do. Now come before I tie you down
Taeyeon then slowly dragged herself off Tiffanys bed and lazily took the container from Sooyoungs
hands. She tipped out the container and out came four pills. Taeyeon then quickly popped them into
her mouth and washed it down with water
Oh. Eugh. It doesnt get any better each time Taeyeon said with disgust
Sooyoung patted her back before taking the container and walking out
Tiffany had seen this scene many times when Taeyeon came over to visit her. She was desperately
trying to figure out what was wrong with Taeyeon but didnt have the nerves to ask
Taeyeon saw the confusion in Tiffanys eyes and smiled reassuringly
Ive got Emphysema. Its a disease which makes it difficult for me to breathe. My family are always
busy so they really cant take care of me. So they sent me here, with Sooyoung in charge Taeyeon
suddenly said
Tiffany stared at Taeyeon
Ive been here 8 years before you came till now. Like I said, here is my second home Taeyeon
smiled
Tiffanys jaw dropped
11 years.... Tiffany whispered
Thats half of my life Taeyeon chuckled trying to lighten the mood
Tiffany remained silent
Isnt there a cure? Tiffany whispered
Taeyeon rested her chin against the side of her bed
For now, no. The tablets that Sooyoung give me are supposed to help me Taeyeon then started
drawing circles on the side of the bed again
Tiffany recognised that Taeyeon would do that whenever she felt uneasy or nervous
I really shouldnt be walking out and about... but the room is just too quiet by myself. Its also why
they are so against me going out to Timmys restaurant
Does Timmy and the others know? Tiffany asked
Taeyeon nodded, her chin scrunching up against the bed as she did
They were against me as well at first. But I told them I wanted some time away from all the trouble
and stress. Made me relax every once in a while. Eventually they gave up and accepted me

The awkward silence then took over the room


Tiffany then took Taeyeons hand and lifted it up to her chest. She giggled at Taeyeons bewildered
expression
Relax. Can you feel it? Tiffany asked as she pressed Taeyeons palm against her chest
Taeyeon and Tiffany remained silent for a while
Your heart beat? Taeyeon broke the silence
Tiffany nodded slowly
My heart has a weak valve. I was diagnosed with this a while ago when I experienced a heart attack.
The only way I can be cured is if I have a new heart donor. I transferred to Korea because they have
the smallest waiting line Tiffany explained
Oh... Im sorry Taeyeon said slowly
Its not your fault, theres no need to apologize Tiffany chuckled
The silence took over the room again
Wait here. Ill go ask the nurses something Taeyeon said as she got up and ran out to the door
Tiffany sighed and smiled at Taeyeons sudden burst of energy
She really is energetic for someone who has a lung disease Tiffany whispered to herself
Just as she finished she saw Taeyeon running back into the room and hiding beside her bed
What is it? Tiffany asked, bewildered
Jessica... Taeyeon whispered as she pointed at the door
Soon enough Jessica came through the door with a mad look on her face
Where is she? Jessica growled
Tiffany took a peek at Taeyeon to see her shaking her head
Wheres who? Tiffany asked innocently
Taeyeon. Who else would I be looking for? Jessica said back angrily
Tiffany was taken aback by Jessicas harshness
Jessica saw Tiffanys surprised expression and let out a sigh as she calmed herself down
Sorry, I didnt mean to snap. I swear Taeyeon is going to get it when I find her Jessica mumbled to
herself as she went to find her
Taeyeon gave a sigh of relief when she heard Jessica leave

Is there a reason why shes chasing you? Tiffany asked curiously


... Taeyeon averted her eyes
I can call her back any time you know Tiffany threatened with an evil smirk
NO! Taeyeon yelled
Tiffany smiled at Taeyeon and waited for her response
I... was supposed to get my check-up yesterday... I kinda got Jessica... ahem... lost? Taeyeon raised
her eyebrow and shrugged her shoulders at the last word
Tiffany stared at Taeyeon with disbelief
Got you!
Taeyeon felt something grab onto the back of her shirt and start pulling her out
Tiffanys jaw dropped when she saw who was pulling Taeyeon
Jessica... Hey... Tiffany said nervously
Taeyeon gulped, sensing the dark, evil aura surrounding Jessica as she was dragged down the
hallway
Tiffany got off her bed and ran to the door as she watched the scene unfold
You got me more then lost. You left me in the middle of an alleyway with nothing but a phone that
had 15 minutes of batteries left Jessica growled
I.. I... I didnt mean it Taeyeon stuttered as she tried to free herself
Jessica kept her grip firmly on Taeyeons shirt
Wheres the complaint box! This is unfair treatment of patients! Your boss shall hear about this!
Taeyeon yelled as she struggled from Jessicas grip
Jessica smirked
Sorry the complaint box isnt for annoying brats who make our jobs harder
Taeyeon let out a whine as Jessica dragged her into the check-up room
Dont lock the door Taeyeon cried out
To her dismay she heard the door click behind her
Tiffany watched from the outside as she saw Sooyoung put a lock onto the door
Its all good. We wont need to play cat and mouse today Sooyoung said aloud

Tiffany noticed that all the nurses and even doctors sighed with relief. She then bit her lower lip as a
giggle escaped her lips
I see shes caused quite a record for herself Tiffany smiled as she returned to her bed

Chapter Three:
Hey Jessica... Taeyeon said quietly
Answer is no Jessica said bluntly
But I havent said anything yet Taeyeon pouted
Answer is still no Jessica said again
Taeyeon frowned as she sighed heavily while Jessica was running the check up
After a few minutes Jessica finally finished the check-up and was writing down the results onto the
page
So what was it? Jessica asked as she put the clipboard down
Taeyeon raised her eyebrow at Jessica
What did you want to ask about before Jessica asked again
Taeyeon smiled at Jessicas change in attitude
Well you know how me and Tiffany are in separate rooms by ourselves. I was wondering if we could
move in together Taeyeon said excitedly
Jessica stared at Taeyeon blankly
Well see Jessica said as she went over to the door and knocked on it
Sooyoung. Check-up is done. Open the door Jessica said rather annoyed
As soon as she had said that the door clicked as Sooyoung took the lock off and opened the door
Taeyeon wants Tiffany to move in with her. Can you arrange that for me? Im going to take my
break Jessica ordered as she walked to the nearest elevator
She seems a little out of it today Sooyoung said as she leaned against the side of the door frame
Taeyeon hopped off the bed and came up to Sooyoung.
Isnt she always? Taeyeon chuckled
Sooyoung chuckled along as she rested her arm against Taeyeons shoulder
So how was it? Sooyoung asked as she stared at Taeyeon warily
Taeyeon paused for a moment before looking up at Sooyoung
Great Taeyeon beamed as she walked off
Strangely enough she didnt walk back to Tiffanys room, but instead she went back to her own

Sooyoung was left dumbfounded as her arm was still hanging in midair. She then walked over to the
clipboard and checked the results
Shes a great liar A voice said from behind her
Sooyoung turned around to see that Jessica had returned. She then smiled sympathetically
She just doesnt want to ruin the mood Sooyoung defended
Jessica just rolled her eyes
That Tiffany girl seems to be making her a lot happier though Jessica shrugged
Sooyoung chuckled
Everyone needs a friend. Taeyeon finally found one that wont leave her so quickly
Jessica just disregarded Sooyoungs comment and walked off

Later that evening Taeyeon ran towards Tiffanys room


Tiffany! Good news! Taeyeon yelled as she burst the door open
Tiffany jumped up with surprise, causing her to juggle the book that she was reading a few times
Sorry to scare you so suddenly. By the way have you ever thought of joining the circus with a
juggling act? Taeyeon teased
Tiffany stuck her tongue out at Taeyeon as she set the book beside her
Whats the good news? Tiffany said rather annoyed
Oh right. Youre moving in with me again Taeyeon beamed as she pointed her thumbs to herself
Tiffany raised her eyebrow at Taeyeon
Tsk Taeyeon exclaimed as she put her hand on her waist
She then walked up and examined Tiffanys bed
What? Tiffany asked curiously
Taeyeon then clicked the brakes of the bed on all four wheels
Yah! What do you think youre doing? Tiffany said worriedly
Saving you the trouble of moving Taeyeon smiled evilly as she pulled Tiffanys bed
Tiffany grasped to the sides of the bed hastily as Taeyeon started to walk behind her and push on
the head board

Nurse! Nurse! Tiffany yelled for help


Taeyeon just smiled even wider as she pushed Tiffany out the door and onto the hallway
As the two of them whizzed past patients, visitors, nurses and even doctors, Taeyeon just smiled
politely as she bowed her head at them and said Good evening
Tiffany on the other hand wasnt so polite. Not only was she in an embarrassing situation but she
was also scared to death.
Taeyeon stop! Now! I swear once you stop I will never let you see tomorrow Tiffany yelled
Taeyeon chuckled at Tiffanys comment
Tomorrow never comes~ Taeyeon chimed
Tiffany was about to retaliate to Taeyeons answer but was interrupted when Taeyeon narrowly
avoided a nurse
Just dont hit anyone! Tiffany squealed as she covered her eyes in fear
SORRY! Tiffany heard Taeyeon apologise
Tiffany peeked from the side of her hand to see a little kid on the side with a horrified look on their
face. She then quickly closed her eyes again and wished that Taeyeon would stop soon
Just as she had finished wishing, her bed came up to a stop. She then peeked again to see her inside
a room
Well that was easy Taeyeon beamed as she brushed her hands proudly
Tiffany then let out a sigh, not realising that she had been holding her breath all the way through the
ride
Now excuse me, Ill go finish up Taeyeon smiled as she gave a playful bow and walked out
Tiffany took a quick look around to see that the room looked familiar. When she realised that it was
the same room that she and Taeyeon shared three years ago she gasped before smiling widely
She noticed that the room was now decorated with different cards, pictures and stickers. Slowly,
Tiffany hopped off her bed and headed to the little corner which had paper with writing on it pinned
up against the window with the words facing outside
Forever wishing upon a star.
Please star, grant my wish for my dream to come true
-Taeyeon
Tiffany smiled sympathetically at the note and grabbed the pen nearest to her. She scribbled onto a
spare piece of paper

Forever wishing upon a star


Please may you grant my wish to forever have a friend beside me
- Stephanie Hwang
When she had finished writing the note, she frowned at her real name before popping the piece of
paper on the far most corner with the words facing out, just like Taeyeons
Im sure Mr and Mrs Star can see it from here Tiffany nodded proudly before putting the pen
down and walking back to her bed

When Taeyeon exited the room she leaned against the wall next to the door and slid down. She then
pulled her knees up to her chest as she started to feel breathless
*Youve over worked yourself again* Taeyeon chuckled to herself
Oh my god. Taeyeon! Taeyeon heard Sooyoung yell as she came over and helped her up
Im fine Taeyeon said breathlessly
Sooyoung growled under her breath as she tossed Taeyeons arms around her
No youre not. Go back into your room Sooyoung said sternly
Taeyeon shook her head
Tiffanys in there Taeyeon muttered as she grasped her chest painfully
Sooyoung sighed with disbelief at Taeyeon
Jessica then came walking up calmly with an oxygen mask
Taeyeon secured the mask and slowly caught her breath. As she did she looked up and smiled at
Jessica
Thanks Taeyeon whispered
Jessica shot Taeyeon a glare
You know youre not suppose to over work yourself. Especially after todays results! Jessica
lectured
Taeyeon put her index finger up to her mask
Shhh Taeyeon hushed with a weak wink
Jessica clenched her teeth at Taeyeons gesture
If you dont take care of yourself Im moving Tiffany back. Remember that Jessica muttered before
turning away quickly and walking off

Sooyoung bit her lip nervously


Taeyeon then started to feel better and took her arm off Sooyoungs shoulders
Thanks Soo. Taeyeon smiled as she stood up straight
Sooyoung looked at Taeyeon worriedly
Go back and rest. Nurses order Sooyoung said worriedly
Taeyeon nodded slowly
Right after I finish getting Tiffanys stuff Taeyeon said as she patted Sooyoungs shoulder
Sooyoung quickly stopped her
I dont think so. Go back and rest Sooyoung said seriously
Taeyeon slowly turned around and looked at Sooyoung
Im serious Tae. Youre in no condition to be running around. From now you are not allowed to go
to Timmys restaurant either. Sooyoung said sternly as she crossed her arms
Taeyeon looked at Sooyoung seriously. She knew that Sooyoung would stick to her word this time
and did not dare to joke around with her. Instead she just turned around and headed to Tiffanys
room
Taeyeon. Didnt I say no? Sooyoung asked as she followed
I know Taeyeon said bluntly. But Im not listening
Sooyoung quickly stood in front of Taeyeon but Taeyeon swerved around her
Nurses! Sooyoung yelled
The nurse closest to them stopped Taeyeon by grabbing onto her wrist and turning her around
Dammit Soo! Cant you just let me finish something by myself! Taeyeon yelled in frustration as she
threw her hands down hard
Sooyoung and the nurses eyes popped open at Taeyeons sudden outburst
Ever since I was admitted here Ive never been able to do anything I wanted by myself. It always
involves someone tagging along with me monitoring me Taeyeon added
Thats because were wo...
Its because you think Im not capable Taeyeon interrupted
Sooyoung reached her hand out and patted Taeyeons shoulder
Its not like that. You know that we are just worried about your wellbeing Sooyoung explained
slowly

Taeyeon shrugged Sooyoungs hand off her shoulder angrily


When I take a walk theres always someone tagging along. Whenever I go too far off I get taken
back. I cant even run without being told off by the nurses Taeyeon growled
Sooyoung and the nurse remained silent
Im still capable of looking after myself you know. Just because I have a sickness it doesnt mean
you can take all my freedom away from me
Sooyoung gulped as she looked around and saw a group of people looking at their little drama
Taeyeon lets just go Sooyoung whispered as she grabbed Taeyeons arm and walked off
Taeyeon remained still and yanked her hand back
I dont need your help anymore. I dont care what happens. At least if Im going to mmmmphhh
Before Taeyeon could finish Jessica came up behind her and silenced her
Didnt I say youre not allowed to say that to anyone? Jessica growled into Taeyeons ear
Taeyeon pulled Jessicas hand off her mouth
Why do you always pop out of nowhere! Do you know how annoying that is?! Taeyeon exclaimed
Jessica just shrugged as she let Taeyeon go
You have not lost your freedom. We are just protecting you. Second, if no one cared we wouldve
just left you to your family. And thirdly, you do need our help if you want to stay healthy Jessica
said sternly
The crowd slowly began to leave once Jessica joined in
Now hurry up and finish what youre doing. Sooyoung, ease up a little. Its nothing serious Jessica
finished off
Taeyeon turned her chin up at Sooyoung and shot her a glare before walking pass her and bumping
into her shoulder
Sooyoung scoffed at Taeyeons childish act
Leave her Jessica motioned as Taeyeon went to get Tiffanys stuff
Sooyoung let out a frustrated scream and threw her hands into the air
That girl doesnt understand that she has a CHANCE to live Sooyoung exclaimed
Jessica patted Sooyoung on her back
I think after 11 years of staying here, anyone would lose their hope Jessica whispered
Sooyoung sighed

Its because she doesnt take care of herself. If she hadnt gone off by herself all those times she
wouldve been all better now
Jessica chuckled
Shes an outgoing girl. You cant change someones nature. Now lets get out of Taeyeons way
before she runs off again Jessica said as she pulled Sooyoung away
Sooyoung looked back at Tiffanys room to see Taeyeon exit with stuff piled high and was about to
help her when Jessica stopped her
Leave her. She wants independence. Give her a chance to experience once in a while Jessica
whispered
Sooyoung bit her lower lip as she saw Taeyeon stumble a little, but nevertheless, she followed
Jessicas orders and turned away from the short girl carrying the pile of stuff down the hall

Tiffany! Open up! Taeyeon yelled from the outside


Moments later the door opened and Tiffany was standing there with wide open eyes
Wow Tiffany exclaimed
Taeyeon peered from the side of the stack of stuff and gave a toothy grin
Your own personal TaeTae Delivery Service. Guaranteed deliver in an hour. Service closes down....
Right now Taeyeon then gasped as she set the things down tiredly
Tiffany jumped back a little to avoid the stuff being dropped onto her toes
Thats my workout done for a week Taeyeon chuckled as she massaged her arms
Tiffany smiled as she went over and massaged Taeyeons arms for her
Someone has a lot of stamina Tiffany chuckled
Taeyeon smiled sideways as she raised her arm and flexed
You like? Taeyeon smiled
Tiffany laughed as she hit Taeyeons arm playfully
Aish. Tiffany exclaimed

Taeyeon laughed as she dodged Tiffanys attacks


She then noticed another piece of paper on her window and pulled a puzzled face
I cant let the stars grant your wishes alone now cant I? Tiffany said from behind
Taeyeon jumped at Tiffanys voice
You saw it? Taeyeon asked nervously
Tiffany nodded proudly
Kinda cute Tiffany smiled
Taeyeon blushed with embarrassment
Forever wishing upon a star Tiffany quoted I dont think its necessary to put forever in there.
Sooner or later your wish will come true
Taeyeon raised her eyebrow at Tiffany
Please dont tell me youre the type who checks up their horoscopes everyday Taeyeon said
bluntly
Tiffany gave Taeyeon a weird look
Why whats wrong with that? Tiffany asked innocently
Taeyeon plugged her fingers into her ear
No astrology talk here please. I cant stand having my horoscope taken Taeyeon ssaid loudly
Tiffany giggled at the dorky Taeyeon
Im joking. I'm not into that kind of stuff. Now I should probably start unpacking Tiffany said as she
pouted at the pile of stuff
Taeyeon skipped over to the pile and pulled out a Totoro bear
Arent you a little old for this? Taeyeon chuckled
Tiffany frowned at Taeyeon
Totoro. Help me find my little sister in the magical cat bus Taeyeon said in a child-like voice as she
held it up and hugged it
Tiffany yanked the little plush toy out of Taeyeons hand and stuck her tongue out
Haha. Im joking. Its cute Taeyeon chuckled
She then bent over to pick up a few of Tiffanys books and put it on the desk near their beds
Were going to be living in here now huh? Tiffany said slowly

Taeyeon turned around to see Tiffany holding onto her plush toy tightly and felt her heart tighten.
She remembered the first time she came into the hospital after being informed that she wont be
returning home for a while. She felt left behind by her family as people enjoyed their lives while she
was stuck in hospital
We wont be living here long. Were going to go out there and become successful people Taeyeon
said proudly as she hit her chest with her fist proudly
Tiffany gave Taeyeon an unsure look
Theres someone out there willing to give their heart to you. Dont worry Taeyeon chuckled as she
patted Tiffanys head
Tiffany just nodded childishly as she crawled into her bed
And you? Tiffany asked softly
Taeyeon just pulled a wide reassuring smile
I will also be out of here soon and she said nothing more as she packed Tiffanys stuff
Tiffany watched as the pile of stuff slowly began to shrink until everything was put away. She looked
around and began to feel a little more comfortable as it resembled a little like her room, except for
the equipment beside her
Taeyeon came up and popped up on the side of Tiffanys bed
Here Taeyeon said as she reached behind her neck
Tiffany then saw Taeyeon unlock the chain around her neck and hold it in the palm of her hand.
Taeyeon picked up her hand and put the chain into it
Welcome to your new room present. From me... To you Taeyeon smiled as she pushed Tiffanys
hand towards her chest
Tiffany opened her hand to see Taeyeons necklace with a heart shape on it
Taeyeon... I cant take this Tiffany said as she pushed the chain back to her
Taeyeon just smiled as she pushed it back
Just a little present. Nothing much
Tiffany gave Taeyeon a disapproving look
Besides were friends arent we? Taeyeon smiled widely
Tiffany softened at Taeyeons smile
Here. Turn around Taeyeon said as she took the chain

Tiffany turned her torso around so that her back was facing Taeyeon. Taeyeon then put the chain
around her neck and clipped it into place
Like I said. From me, to you Taeyeon nodded proudly as the heart hung from the chain above
Tiffanys chest
Tiffany hugged Taeyeon tightly
Thank you Tiffany mumbled into her ear
Taeyeon just chuckled as she patted her back
No problem? Taeyeon said unsurely
Tiffany shook her head
I was worried that I would be lonely once I was admitted here. Im really grateful that youre here
for me Tiffany whispered
Taeyeon smiled as she hugged Tiffany back
Same to you Taeyeon said back

Chapter Four:
Spring had finally come round and Tiffany was sitting on her bed staring at the wall straight ahead of
her. There was a picture that Taeyeon and her had drawn during the rainy days of winter. It had a
picture of them together and writing all over it
Tiffany smiled as she read a note on the side that Taeyeon had wrote
Tiffany has the best eye smile with an arrow pointing to Tiffanys character
It was crossed out by Tiffany because she felt embarrassed by the compliment.
All around the page compliments were written and then crossed out again because none of them
accepted any of the compliments, so the picture just ended up being filled with writing everywhere
In the end they got another piece of paper and wrote Friends Forever and stuck it on top of the
drawing so that it stood out. It looks pretty good in Tiffanys opinion
Taeyeon then returned from her check-up and had a huge smile on her face
How was it? Tiffany asked with a warming smile
Taeyeon gave the thumbs up and grinned. She then reached into her pocket and pulled out two
lollipops
Jessica gave me these for not running away again Taeyeon chuckled as she walked over and gave
Tiffany a lollipop
Tiffany stared at the lollipop and raised her eyebrow.
How old are you again? Tiffany asked with a hint of sarcasm
Taeyeon chuckled as she held six fingers up
Im eight! Taeyeon beamed
Tiffany looked at Taeyeon worriedly as she looked back and forth between her face and her hand
Taeyeon burst out into laughter, finding Tiffanys confused face amusing
Im joking. Besides you can never be too old for lollies Taeyeon shrugged as she ripped the
wrapper off and popped it into her mouth
Tiffany opened her lollipop and popped it into her mouth also
What flavour you got? Taeyeon asked curiously
Tiffany pulled the lollipop out held it in front of her, revealing the blue confectionary
Blueberry Tiffany answered What about you? Tiffany turned her head to Taeyeon
Taeyeon pulled hers out and revealed it to be pink
Strawberry Taeyeon pouted

Tiffany pouted along


Taeyeon then smiled as she popped Tiffanys lollipop into her mouth and took it from her hand
Yah! Tiffany yelled but was shortly interrupted when Taeyeon shoved hers into her mouth
Tiffany quickly took it out and stared at Taeyeon in disbelief
Taeyeon moved the lollipop to the side of her cheek and made an innocent peace sign
Blueberry. My favourite Taeyeon chuckled
What do you think youre doing. This is like.. Tiffany tried to find the right words
Indirect kissing? Taeyeon answered for her
Tiffanys cheeks turned a pink shade as she nodded
Taeyeon just shrugged
Doesnt matter to me, were both friends anyway. Besides you like strawberry and I like blueberry,
seems logical enough
Tiffany looked at the lollipop again then back at Taeyeon. Taeyeon was happily eating the blueberry
one as though it hadnt been in her mouth before.
*Maybe Im just self-conscious.* Tiffany thought to herself before shrugging and popping into her
mouth
Taeyeon smiled after their short argument was over and walked over to their small table in the
corner of the room, trying to find something to do
Ever since Tiffany had moved in Taeyeon hadnt been going outside as often anymore. She then
looked outside into the streets and saw people running around busily. She secretly envied them as
she raised her hand and pressed it against the window
Then in the distance she saw a balloon floating into the sky. Taeyeon squinted her eyes as she took a
closer look at where the balloon was coming from.
She saw a small little fair that was held at the park not too far from the hospital. A smile crept onto
her face as she got an idea
Tiffany! Get ready. Were going to have fun today Taeyeon beamed
Tiffany glared at Taeyeon
I always worry when you say that Tiffany muttered
Taeyeon raised her eyebrows innocently and tilted her head to the side
Your definition of fun is from lets say, a different dictionary Tiffany explained
Taeyeon chuckled as she held her right hand up and the other to her chest

I promise you no bugs, horror movies, ghosts or blood is involved Taeyeon promised
Tiffany narrowed her eyes, not believing Taeyeon
Taeyeon just rolled her eyes as she went to get Tiffany a pair of clothes before chucking it into her
bed
Be ready in 10 minutes Taeyeon said as she pointed to Tiffany
She then took her own clothes and went to the restrooms outside to change, making sure that none
of the nurses would notice
Tiffany stared down at the clothes that Taeyeon had picked and sighed
She promised I guess Tiffany reasoned as she jumped out and got ready

_________________________

Taeyeon are we there yet? Tiffany whined as Taeyeon dragged her hand along the road
Taeyeon just remained silent as she began speeding up
I feel like a mother of a child whos just found a new toy that she wants Tiffany complained
Taeyeon just shrugged
Something like that Taeyeon admitted
After another minute of walking they arrived at the entrance of the fair
Just a little fun Taeyeon said as she turned to look at Tiffany
Tiffany stared at the sign above the entrance
Star Museum Entertainments Spring Fair
SM Entertainment has fairs? Tiffany asked as she raised her eyebrows
Taeyeon just shrugged
Well its spring. Might as well make use of it
What if Sooyoung catches us? Or even worse Jessica. Tiffany said in a deep voice
Taeyeon shuddered at Jessicas name
Well buy them something to bribe our way out Taeyeon thought
Tiffany thought for a while as she considered the idea

No time to think Taeyeon said abruptly as she quickly pulled Tiffany through the entrance
As they walked through they saw people with their family, friends and couples walking around the
area. The atmosphere was exciting but calming at the same time
Cotton candy! Taeyeon yelled as she pointed to the store
Tiffany bit her lip with embarrassment as the people around her looked at Taeyeon. She tugged onto
Taeyeons hand and warned her to calm down
One cotton candy stick please. A big one too Taeyeon asked as she held up one finger
Of course the man at the stall smiled as he started twirling the stick around the machine
One? Tiffany asked with an eyebrow raised
The man handed Taeyeon a large cotton candy stick as Taeyeon paid for it
Taeyeon then held it up to Tiffanys face
Eat Taeyeon beamed as she took a bite from the side
Tiffany stared at the pink fluffy confectionary in front of her
Sharing is caring Taeyeon said as she took another bite
Tiffany just shrugged as she took a bite herself. The pink sugary cotton candy melted in her mouth
and warmed her mouth. It was like heaven in her mouth
Taeyeon could see Tiffanys reaction to the candy and turned to the man at the stall
Its great ahjussi, thank you Taeyeon said as she held up her free hand up and gave the thumbs up
sign
Glad you like it the man smiled as the two walked to the next stall
As Tiffany and Taeyeon shared the cotton candy they browsed through the stalls on the side,
weaving in and out and once in a while, buying something they like
They stopped in front of a small flower shop as the smell of the roses wafted through their noses
Hi there girls a middle aged woman greeted
Taeyeon and Tiffany smiled as they bowed to the woman
Your flowers are beautiful Tiffany complimented
The woman chuckled
Why thank you the woman smiled
Taeyeon looked around as she saw all the flowers were in full bloom

Theyre all so beautiful Taeyeon said in awe


The woman just smiled
Spring is finally here. The flowers are showing their true colours the woman said timidly
Taeyeon nodded with her jaw hanging down as she saw a particular pot that hadnt bloomed yet.
Tiffany followed Taeyeons gaze and also looked at the pot above them
Thats called a Lamprocapnos spectabilis, also known as the bleeding heart the woman said
intelligently
Taeyeon and Tiffany pulled their heads down and looked at her confusingly
A beautiful flower that one is. It doesnt bloom until the late spring. A late bloomer but it certainly
is worth the wait the woman smiled as she looked at the pot wonderingly
The two nodded slowly in unison.
The woman chuckled quietly as she reached up and pulled the pot down
Here, you two can take these. It will bring you great joy once it blooms
Taeyeon and Tiffany looked at each other before they looked back at the lady and shook their heads
We cant take this They insisted
The woman shook her head as she pushed the flower pot into their hands
Its my present for you two. If youre lucky it will bloom earlier. Im sure you two can look after it
better than I could the woman smiled sweetly
Taeyeon bit her lip as she took the pot carefully and placed it in her arm
Tiffany bowed in thanks to the woman. As she came up she looked behind her after hearing a
familiar voice
This is great!
Tiffany froze when she saw her friend, Yuri, walking around with her friends
Uh oh Tiffany exclaimed as she quickly turned her head back and closed her eyes, waiting for Yuri
to pass
Taeyeon looked behind Tiffany, wondering what was going on. When she caught sight of Yuri her
jaw drop
Hey Tiffany. Isnt that Yuri who visited you the other day? Taeyeon said as she pointed to her in
the distance
Tiffany quickly pulled Taeyeons finger down and hushed her

Shhh. Im not supposed to be here remember. If she finds me my moms going to find out and then
I will have to go through hours of lecturing over the phone Tiffany groaned
Taeyeon smiled as she grabbed Tiffanys hand. She quickly bowed to the lady before running off
Thank you again Taeyeon yelled from over her shoulder
The woman smiled at the two as she waved back at them
Young people she chuckled

Taeyeon pulled Tiffany through the crowds of people while holding tightly onto the new flower pot
that they just got. They soon reached an opening with an empty bench and decided to take a rest
Phew Taeyeon exclaimed before laughing out loud
What? Tiffany said, wondering why Taeyeon was laughing
Taeyeon took her hand from Tiffanys and patted her head
Your hair is a mess Taeyeon said in a motherly tone
Tiffany quickly turned around and fixed her hair. She looked in the reflection of her phone and
sighed
Its a lost cause Tiffany. Just leave it Taeyeon chuckled
Tiffany blew the pieces of hair out of her face and had an unamused expression on her face
Taeyeon checked her watch for the time and decided that it was time to get back to the hospital, she
was starting to get tired from all the walking and running around
We should probably get back Taeyeon said disappointedly as she held her hand with the watch up.
Tiffany turned her head and checked the time and nodded in agreement.
We really shouldnt be out late Tiffany sighed
Taeyeon nodded slowly as she started walking to the exit. Tiffany naturally followed behind.
As they were walking back Tiffany noticed that the road they were taking was different from the one
they used to get there
Are you sure this is the way Tiffany questioned as she looked around to find something familiar
Yeah it is. Its just a detour though Taeyeon answered
Tiffany stopped in her tracks and stared at Taeyeon
Detour? Tiffany exclaimed

Taeyeon nodded
I know my way around here, dont worry. It will only take 10 minutes Taeyeon reassured as she
started to skip along the pathway
Tiffany had no choice but to trust Taeyeon because she honestly didnt know where they were. She
did however whine and groan, begging Taeyeon to take them back faster.
Before long Tiffany heard the sounds of waves crashing and a fresh breeze was blowing. She looked
to the side to see the beach in front of them. The sun was also starting to set and the sky was slowly
turning into a bright, vivid orange colour the occasional dark blue clouds cutting through the sky
She then looked back to see Taeyeon leaning against the railing and smiling at the beautiful scene
Been a while since Ive been here Taeyeon said quietly
Tiffany walked over to her and also leaned against the rail, both their arms were touching as they
watched the sun set
Its beautiful Tiffany commented as a smile was pasted onto her face
Taeyeon nodded nostalgically
As the sun sunk lower and lower, the sky started to get darker and darker, until finally the sun hid
behind the vast blue ocean and night filled the sky
We should probably get back now Taeyeon sighed as she took the pot up and put it in her arms
again, not minding the dirt that was going to stain her shirt
Tiffany stretched her arms and gave a tired yawn
Sooyoung is probably going to check on us soon. If we hurry we can get back before she finds out
Taeyeon smiled evilly
Tiffany just rolled her eyes as she started walking behind Taeyeon

As the two crept back into their rooms they quickly dashed to get their clothes and get changed
before Sooyoung could come in and check on them.
Taeyeon hid the flower pot behind the curtains of the windows. She then hid all evidence of either
her or Tiffany leaving the room
Just as Taeyeon finished hiding the flower pot she heard the door click open. Tiffany panicked and
quickly patted the empty bed space beside her. Taeyeon quickly responded by grabbing a pen and a
pad of sticky notes before jumping onto that empty space.

As Sooyoung walked in Taeyeon was acting casually as she wrote down something onto the notepad
Tiffany is a pabo
She then took the piece of paper off the pad and stuck it onto Tiffanys forehead before laughing and
pointing at it
Tiffany looked up at the piece of paper hanging from her forehead and blew on it
If you can guess what it says you get one wish Taeyeon said with a wink
What are you two up to? Sooyoung intruded
Taeyeon turned around with an innocent look on her face
Just entertaining ourselves with some sticky notes and a pen Taeyeon said innocently
Sooyoung crossed her arms and stared at Taeyeon sceptically
You seem guilty of something Sooyoung said accusingly
Tiffanys breath became uneven, scared that they might have been caught
Taeyeon just shrugged her shoulders innocently
Spill it Sooyoung ordered
Taeyeon pretended to zip her lips and throw away the key
Tiffany just kept staring back and forth between Taeyeon and Sooyoung
Sooyoung narrowed her eyes at Taeyeon as she tried to figure what she could possibly be guilty for.
She then remembered something from earlier when she went to get a little snack from her personal
stock
You! Sooyoung growled as she made her way to strangle Taeyeon
Taeyeon raised her eyebrows high and gave Sooyoung a confused look
Mwo?! Taeyeon exclaimed
You took them didnt you? The two lollies from my table Sooyoung growled
Taeyeon then slowly started to smile brightly
What lollies? she asked innocently
You know what Im talking about Sooyoung replied as her eyebrows lowered even more
Taeyeon chuckled as she held her hands up
Wasnt me she lied
Tiffany could have sworn she saw steam burst through Sooyoungs ears at Taeyeons response

Taeyeon bit her lip with amusement as she saw Sooyoungs expression
Sooyoung then calmed down and slowly headed out the door
You two get some sleep. Ive had a long day Sooyoung sighed as she rubbed her temples
Taeyeon gave a joking salute before hopping off the bed and skipping over to her own
Good night Tiffany Taeyeon smiled as she looked back
She then realised that Tiffany still had the sticky note stuck onto her forehead. Taeyeon covered her
mouth with one hand and pointed to Tiffanys forehead with the other
That note suits you Taeyeon giggled
Tiffany frowned as she ripped the sticky note off her forehead and read what was written on it
Yah! Why didnt you tell me you wrote something on it! Tiffany yelled as she threw the paper at
Taeyeon
Taeyeon just rolled on her bed, holding her stomach because she was laughing too hard
Tiffany flared her teeth at Taeyeon before turning around and covering herself with the blanket
Taeyeon manged to calm down and slowly began to catch her breath. She then noticed that Tiffany
was mad at her
Aw come one Tiffany. It was just a joke. Besides its not like you walked out in the middle of the
street with it Taeyeon tried to calm her down
Tiffany just shook her head as she pulled the blanket over her head
Taeyeon pouted for a while as she searched for something to cheer Tiffany up with. She spotted the
Totoro bear on the side of the room and decided to play a little with it. She quickly got off her bed
and grabbed the plush toy before going over to where Tiffany was facing
Totoro wants a hug Taeyeon whispered
Tiffany remained unmoved
Totoro wont be showing himself to you anymore if you leave him Taeyeon said cutely
Tiffany still didnt move. Taeyeon frowned at Tiffanys stubbornness
Taetoro is sorry Taeyeon cooed
From under the blankets Tiffany raised her eyebrows
Taetoro promises not to call you a pabo again. Totoro here will be my witness. Ahem Taeyeon
cleared her throat as she sat up straight and stared straight into the plush toys eyes. I Kim
Taetoro, promise to never ever call Tiffany a pabo ever again Taeyeon said proudly
Tiffany peered from the top of her blanket to see Taeyeon staring directly at her plush toy

Taetoro will also treat Tiffany to Timmys specials again Taeyeon added
Tiffany smiled from under the blankets at Taeyeons dorkiness. She then began to suffocate inside
the blanket and had no choice but to pop her full head out
Taeyeon smiled when she saw Tiffanys face and put out her pinky finger
Pinky promise? Taeyeon smiled
Tiffany just giggled as she took Taeyeons finger with her own and did a quick shake of the fingers
You better keep your promise Tiffany growled jokingly
Taeyeon chuckled as she leaned in and gave Tiffany a goodnight kiss on the cheek
Sleep tight Taeyeon beamed before tucking Totoro in with Tiffany and walking back to her own
bed
Tiffany smiled widely after receiving the kiss and hugged the plush toy next to her tightly
Good night Tiffany murmured

From the window sill the sky outside was a dark blue colour, which was lit up brightly by the moons
rays. Stars were twinkling to their own rhythm as the occasional cloud covered them.
Just then a shooting star whizzed pass the sky. As it quickly disappeared into vast open sky the
Bleeding Heart plants flower buds slowly began to bloom, allowing a small shade of pink to be seen
from the bottom of the bud.

Chapter Five:
Hmmm. Bleeding heart huh? Tiffany whispered as she stared at the pot plant on the window sill.
The flower bud had started to bloom but only by a bit. It hasnt progressed anymore ever since.
Taeyeon was off with Jessica again for another check-up. Tiffany noticed that she has been getting a
lot more check-ups with each passing day and was wondering whether there was something wrong
with her. But every time Taeyeon came back, the answer was always Im perfectly fine or Jessica
worries too much
Tiffany was beginning to doubt the truthfulness of Taeyeons words, but every time she did, Taeyeon
would prove that she was perfectly fine by doing something radical. Tiffany really didnt like Taeyeon
going out and pushing herself to prove she was healthy, so she just took Taeyeons words and didnt
tell her about her doubts
Taeyeon burst through the room happily as she ran up and hugged Tiffany from behind
Miss me? Taeyeon chuckled
Tiffany turned around and used her knuckle to hit Taeyeons forehead
You always leave me alone in here. I really dont see a difference between your room and my room
anymore Tiffany complained with a pout
Taeyeon let go of Tiffanys waist and used her hands to cover the red spot that was developing on
her head from Tiffanys attack
I dont leave you intentionally. Jessica and Sooyoung are just being the old naggy women they are
Taeyeon complained
She then quickly closed her eyes and ducked her head, expecting either Sooyoung or Jessica behind
her. Sure enough, Jessica was behind her.
Jessica took Tiffanys pillow and slapped Taeyeon across the head with it
Whos an old naggy woman? Jessica growled
Why does everyone attack my head? I can develop brain tumours at this rate Taeyeon pouted as
she ducked under Jessicas arm and onto her bed
Tiffany giggled as she took the pillow from Jessicas hand and sat on her own bed, laying the pillow
over her stomach
Anyways. Im here to bring some good news to Tiffany Jessica said in a tired tone
Tiffany had a shocked expression on her face as she pointed to herself. From the side she could see
Taeyeon clapping eagerly
We found you a heart donor Jessica said in an unexcited tone
Taeyeon took her pillow and threw it at Jessica, hitting a bullseye right on Jessicas face.
When the pillow fell to the floor, Jessica blew a few strands of hair from her face and glared at
Taeyeon

Couldnt you at least be a little happier? Sheez Taeyeon chuckled


Jessica calmly bent over to pick up Taeyeons pillow. Taeyeon stopped chuckling and quickly
scrambled to the door. Jessica took aim and threw the pillow with all her might
Oof
Jessica froze. It wasnt Taeyeons voice that she had heard. Instead it was another nurses
Sooyoungs to be precise
Jessica has the muscles of an elephant Taeyeon whispered from behind Sooyoung, who was
standing there with her hair now messed up
Tiffany giggled at Taeyeons comment, but immediately stopped when Jessica turned her head to
look at her.
For once I agree with Taeyeon Sooyoung said in a joking matter
Jessica reached for the closest thing she had to throw at Sooyoung. The closest thing to her though,
was the pot plant Taeyeon and Tiffany had been hiding
Wait! Tiffany yelled as she quickly grabbed the pot plant and put it back on the window sill
Jessica froze, with her hand still in mid-throw
Tiffany just saved your butt Sooyoung Taeyeon giggled through Sooyoungs ear
Whats a pot doing here in the first place? Sooyoung hushed as her heart started beating faster
Taeyeon weaved her way around Sooyoung and shrugged
Jessica blinked a few times before finally putting her hand down. She looked on her hand to see soil
and dirt on it
Eww! What is this?! Jessica shrieked as she shook her hand
Soil and dirt. What does it look like? Taeyeon said sarcastically
I know its soil and dirt! But why is it on MY hand?! Jessica quickly ran to the bathroom to wash her
hand
You better use disinfectant too Jessi! The soil and dirt came from a cucumber plants pot! Taeyeon
yelled
Another high pitched shriek echoed their bathroom
Cucumber? Tiffany raised her eyebrow
Taeyeon shrugged her shoulders
Jessica has this phobia of cucumber. Quite funny actually Taeyeon stuck her tongue out to the side
I wont be here to save your butt Sooyoung yawned as she walked out the room
See me work my magic Taeyeon chuckled evilly as she rubbed her hands together

Jessica walked out of the bathroom with her hands giving off a really strong smell of soap. Jessica
still looked at her hands with disgust though
I wonder how long it takes for cucumbers to grow. I feel like eating some. Nurse Jung~ Could I
please get a cucumber salad? Taeyeon said innocently to Jessica
Are you out of your mind?! Get it yourself! Jessica shot back
Taeyeon held her hands up defensively
I was just saying. Ill go call another nurse to bring it for me Taeyeon sighed as she pressed the red
button
Im out of here Jessica quickly grumbled as she ran out of the room
Taeyeon burst out into laughter as soon as Jessica was gone
She really that scared of them? Tiffany asked curiously
Taeyeon slowly stopped laughing and gave a proud nod
All that aside though. Congratulations Tiffany Taeyeon beamed as she gave Tiffany a tight hug
Tiffany then remembered the news that Jessica had given her. After 6 months of waiting she finally
had a donor.
Thanks Tiffany smiled as she hugged Taeyeon back
Soon youll be able to go outside freely and hang out with your friends and and enjoy life like
everyone else Tiffany noticed that Taeyeons voice began to quiver
Tiffany hugged Taeyeon tighter
Taeyeon-ah. Whats wrong? Tiffany asked softly
Taeyeon shook her head on Tiffanys shoulder
Im just going to miss you, thats all Taeyeon murmured
You wont have to. Soon youll be out there with me. You said you were getting better right?
Taeyeons grip around Tiffany tightened
Yeah Taeyeon whispered with a nod
It was then that Tiffany didnt feel right. Her stomach twisted in pain at Taeyeons whisper.
Something wasnt right with Taeyeons words
Taeyeon You sure youre alright? Tiffany whispered in an unsure tone
She heard Taeyeon sniff on her shoulder as thought she was crying. Tiffany tried to push Taeyeon
back and look at her but Taeyeon held her grip. Not allowing her to move from the hug
I dont want you to see me right now Taeyeon chuckled. Im just really happy for you I get really
emotional sometimes

Tiffany then wrapped her arms around Taeyeons neck and rested her head against her shoulder
Thank you Taeyeon Tiffany whispered
Taeyeon nodded before she pulled away from the hug, turning around to quickly wipe away any
evidence of her crying before turning back to Tiffany
Well should we go celebrate? Taeyeon said in a joyful tone
Her nose was a little red and her eyes had small but noticeable rings around them
Tiffany looked up at Taeyeon accusingly. Were they really tears of joy?
Taeyeon just innocently turned her head to the side and smiled. That alone was enough to wipe all
doubts that Tiffany had
Well go visit Yoona, Hyoyeon and Timmy tonight. Im sure theyre missing us Taeyeon suggested
as she walked to the small wardrobe to get her oversized hoodie and shorts
Take your time. Its still early Taeyeon smiled as she walked out to get changed
Tiffany didnt even have time to object before Taeyeon was out of the room. Not only was she
overwhelmed with joy, but she was also overwhelmed with worry.
Over the past six months, Tiffany had always spent her time at the hospital with Taeyeon. Getting
into trouble for sneaking out, missing check-ups and teasing the nurses had become a daily thing for
Tiffany now.
Now that she had a heart donor, she would be able to return to her normal life, outside the four
walls of Taeyeons and her room. The only thing was Tiffany didnt want to return to her normal
life. Her life with Taeyeon had become the norm for her and now she wasnt really sure what she
was going to do with herself
Tiffany sighed as she walked over to the bleeding heart plant. She took her water bottle and gave it
some water as she began to fall into deep thought
If she were to get better before Taeyeon does, what was she going to do? Tiffany rested her arm
against the window sill and put her chin against her arm as she stared at the pot
Six months she had been together with Taeyeon. It was a short time, but Tiffany has already become
too attached to let her go
I know I said it was still early Tiffany. But please dont stay in there till nightfall Taeyeon called out
from outside
Coming Tiffany called back as she closed the water bottle lid and got ready.

Timmy! We have two fugitives on the loose! Yoona yelled out as soon as she saw Tiffany and
Taeyeon enter the restaurant

Taeyeon chuckled as she wrapped her arm around Tiffanys neck and made her hand into a gun
shape before pointing it at Tiffanys forehead
Dont move otherwise Ill shoot Taeyeon threatened
Tiffany blinked a few times before turning to look at Taeyeon
What are you doing? Tiffany asked, noticing that Taeyeon was having difficulty keeping her arm
around her neck and reaching up to her forehead
Timmy can we have a stool out here please? The attacker isnt tall enough to threaten the victim
Hyoyeon called out to the kitchen
Tsk Taeyeon huffed as she let Tiffany go
The two of them took their seats in the usual two chairs near the kitchen
What can I get the lovely couple today? Yoona chuckled as she got her electrical notebook out
Taeyeon and Tiffany both shot a glare at Yoona at the same time
Were not a couple Tiffany said sternly
Yoona held her hands up defensively as though their glares were piercing knives
Someones getting high-tech Taeyeon smiled as she poked the device in Yoonas hands
Shes been such a ditz lately we just HAD to get her one Hyoyeon interrupted as she nudged
Yoonas rib
Yoona just stuck her tongue out at Hyoyeon
The usual right? Yoona asked rather annoyed
Taeyeon nodded with her chin rested in her hands
Hyoyeon and Yoona then disappeared as they served other customers
As the two waited for their food, there was an unusual silence between them
So Tiffany Why arent we a couple? Taeyeon asked suddenly, trying to get rid of the
awkwardness
Tiffany, who was drinking some water, hacked up half of the water in her mouth at Taeyeons
sudden question
Taeyeon laughed as she pointed at Tiffany and slammed the other against the table.
Looks like well have to use the water balloon method three years ago Taeyeon said in between
her laughs
Tiffany managed to stop coughing and kicked Taeyeons leg under the table
Not funny Tiffany muttered
Taeyeon just kept on laughing for another minute before she stopped

Yoona and Hyoyeon then brought out their food and rested it against their table
You two enjoy. Timmy said this ones on the house tonight. Hyoyeon smiled
Taeyeon just nodded her head and gave them an innocent smile
Now if you dont mind. I need to help Yoona get the orders right. Even with an electronic device she
still manages to mess up Hyoyeon muttered as she dragged Yoona away by the ear
Well lets celebrate. To Tiffanys donor Taeyeons voice slowly trailed off
Tiffany raised her eyebrow
What is it Taeyeon? Tiffany asked curiously
Taeyeon sighed
I really dont think we should be celebrating Taeyeon said grimly
Tiffany furrowed her eyebrows
Your donor Hes gone now and were celebrating the fact that he is Taeyeon said slowly
Tiffanys mood then plummeted as reality hit her. A heart donor had to GIVE their heart to Tiffany
And in order to do that they must be
Tiffany didnt want to think about it
With all respects to your donor Taeyeon toasted
Tiffany held up her cup and clinked it against Taeyeons
Rest in peace Tiffany prayed silently
That dinner hadnt gone quite as Taeyeon had planned. It was rather awkward and silent as the two
ate.
When they had finished they said their goodbyes to Timmy, Yoona and Hyoyeon and made their way
back to the hospital
On the walk Taeyeon decided to start a conversation
Tiffany What am I to you? Taeyeon asked curiously as she kicked a rock
Tiffany linked her arms with Taeyeons and gave a warm smile
Youre my bestest friend of course Tiffany beamed
Taeyeon stopped walking and looked at Tiffany
Is that it? Taeyeon asked with an eyebrow raised
Tiffany tilted her head to the side
Yeah why? Are you supposed to be something more Tiffany said mockingly

I was expecting something like. The cutest, kindest, hottest, bestest person youve ever met
Taeyeon stretched her arm out as she listed all the traits
Tiffany chuckled as she pocked Taeyeons spine
You wish
Taeyeon dropped her arms and gave an embarrassed smile
A girl can dream Taeyeon answered
Tiffany rolled her eyes as she linked her arms with Taeyeons again and walked to the hospital
I dont think Sooyoung or Jessica would appreciate dealing with you again today. We should get
back Tiffany suggested
Taeyeon leaned back from Tiffanys arm, causing Tiffany to have to pull to get Taeyeon to move
I dont want to Taeyeon whined
Tiffany stopped dragging Taeyeon and turned around with her arms crossed across her chest
What will it take you to get back then? Tiffany said tiredly
Taeyeon pouted as she pointed to a window nearby. Tiffany followed her finger to the window, but
inside the window there was nothing but an empty cage of the pet store
What did you wa.
As Tiffany turned around she was interrupted by something on her lips. Taeyeon had pressed her lips
against Tiffanys and had shut her eyes. A warm sensation was spreading through her body, starting
from her lips.
The sensation didnt last long. Taeyeon removed herself from Tiffanys lips
A good nights kiss Taeyeon beamed as she gave a cheeky smile
Tiffany blinked three times before she let out her breath, not realising that she had been holding it in
until her lungs began to burn
Yah! Tiffany yelled as she raised her hand to hit Taeyeon
Taeyeon giggled as she quickly skipped ahead, narrowly avoiding Tiffanys attack
Bleh Taeyeon exclaimed as she pulled her lower eye-lid and stuck her tongue out at Tiffany
Aish Tiffany said in frustration as she watched Taeyeon skip up ahead
Tiffany then felt something on her lips that wasnt there before. She licked her bottom lip to taste a
bit of some sweet strawberry, along with a bitter taste of some lip gloss
*I didnt know she used strawberry* Tiffany thought to herself
Lip gloss isnt good for you, you know Taeyeon called up from ahead
Tiffany blushed upon the realisation that Taeyeon had caught her

Kim Taeyeon! Youre dead! Tiffany yelled as she chased Taeyeon


As the two were running up hill, Taeyeon stopped in her tracks and stared across the town. Tiffany
caught up and followed Taeyeons gaze
What is it? Tiffany asked as she watched the vast area
Just wishing Taeyeon smiled
Tiffany quickly held her hand over her mouth and shook her head. Taeyeon laughed at Tiffanys
reaction
No Im not wishing for that Taeyeon reassured
Tiffany lowered her arms and stared into Taeyeons eyes, which seemed to be rather distant
More than anything in the world. I want to be able to see the sunrise on my birthday Taeyeon said
aloud. And not just from the window either Taeyeon added
Tiffany smiled at Taeyeons sincere wish
Ill be sure to make that happen Tiffany said determinedly
Taeyeon looked at Tiffany curiously
On your birthday Ill take you to see the sunrise. Whether it be rain, hail or snow, I will still take
you Tiffany beamed as she held out her hand
Taeyeon smiled back at Tiffanys promise and took her hand and gave it a quick shake
You better keep your word Hwang Taeyeon sneered
Tiffany made a peace sign near her eye and stuck her tongue out
Of course I will. After all~ You are the cutest, kindest, hottest, bestest person Ive ever met Tiffany
quoted Taeyeons list of traits
Naww Taeyeon sighed as she made a touched expression
Yah! Dont get too far ahead of yourself Tiffany said bluntly as she linked Taeyeons arms and
made their way back again
Taeyeon smiled to herself happily behind Tiffany
*Tiffany. Saranghae* Taeyeon said mentally as she gripped Tiffanys arm tighter

From the window sill of their room, one of the buds was slowly blooming. Its pink petals finally
showing itself, forming a heart shaped flower with a water-drop coming from the middle. The
moons light shone through the glass and focused on the one blooming flower. It looked as if it was
waiting. Waiting for the bud next to it to bloom together with it.

The sweet smell wafted through their room, lingering and waiting to welcome the two when they
were coming back. Sending a sign to the bud next to it that it was time to bloom

Chapter Six:
We called your parents. They know about the circumstances and risks already. Now its up to you
whether you want to proceed with the operation the doctor said expertly as he flipped through the
papers on his clipboard
Thank you doctor Tiffany smiled sweetly as the doctors walked out
She gave a sigh of relief as soon as they were out of sight. She then decided that it was time to water
the pot plant again, so she got out of her bed and walked over to the window sill where the flower
had started to bloom.
Tiffany smiled at how beautiful the flower was.
Now I know how you got your name Tiffany chuckled as she tipped a few dollops of water into the
pot.
Then from the side, something caught Tiffanys eye. It was a calendar that Taeyeon had bought
recently. She walked over to it and smiled at the large circle on it, marking Taeyeons birthday
Its coming in two months Tiffany whispered as she lifted her finger and traced the circle
The door behind her then opened. Thinking it was Taeyeon Tiffany quickly turned around with a
bright smile. Unfortunately it wasnt Taeyeon, instead it was Sooyoung
Thanks for the warm welcome Sooyoung chuckled as she walked over to the monitors beside
Tiffanys bed
Tiffanys smile then immediately faded as she slowly walked to her bed and slumped onto it. She
looked to her side where Taeyeons bed was empty. Taeyeon was off on another one of her checkups with Jessica again.
You okay? Sooyoung asked with concern behind her
Tiffany jumped a little at Sooyoungs voice, but answered with a nod
Youre worried about that dork? Sooyoung smiled as she took a seat beside Tiffany
Tiffany just sighed and nodded
You dont have to be worried. That kid can tackle a bear, lion AND Jessica and still come out alive.
Jessicas just making sure that Taeyeons in perfect condition Sooyoung reassured
Tiffany chuckled at Sooyoungs remark but she still had a small urge inside her telling her that
something wasnt quite right.
Sooyoung smiled warmly as she patted Tiffanys head
Speak of the devil Sooyoung exclaimed as Taeyeon walked into the room
Tiffanys face immediately brightened when she saw Taeyeons bright smile
Miss me? was Taeyeons usual greeting

Of course not was Tiffanys usual answer


Lies Sooyoung sneered as she pinched Tiffanys cheek
Taeyeon laughed before she jumped on the bed beside Tiffany
Ill leave you two to it then Sooyoung said as she exited the room, leaving Taeyeon and Tiffany
alone
So what did the doctors have to say? Taeyeon asked innocently
They told me that they have informed my parents. They also listed all the risks, but my mother
called in the best of the best surgeons, so that boosted my chances up to 80% Tiffany smiled
Taeyeon pouted
What about the other 20%?
Tiffany shrugged
I guess it will rely on my will to live then Tiffany
Taeyeon frowned
Dont worry. Im going to make it though no matter what. I promised to take you to see the sunrise
on your birthday didnt I? I dont plan on breaking that promise Tiffany smiled as she pinched
Taeyeons cheek. Aigoo. Youre turning 25 and yet you still have a baby face
Taeyeon smiled, causing her face to make a weird expression from Tiffanys pinching
Oh did you see the flower? Taeyeon suddenly jumped as she eyed the pink flower in the window
sill
Neh Tiffany answered with a nod
Its pretty isnt it? Taeyeon smiled But It isnt that pretty Taeyeon pouted
Tiffany raised her eyebrow at Taeyeon
Youre much prettier Taeyeon chuckled as she poked Tiffanys cheek
Aish Tiffany exclaimed as she knocked Taeyeons arm away Stop teasing me like that
Taeyeon chuckled for a while before fixing her stare on Tiffany.
Tiffany Taeyeon said in a low charismatic voice. Saranghae Taeyeon finished off
Tiffany froze

Taeyeon then gave a smirk and a wink before she started trying to hold in her laugh

Taeyeon-ah! Tiffany yelled as she pushed Taeyeon away


Go find someone else to bully Tiffany pouted
Taeyeon just gave off a loud laugh
That was just priceless Taeyeon said in between her laughs
Eiish Tiffany furrowed her eyebrows and glared at Taeyeon
Haha. Okay no more teasing Taeyeon promised as she tried to catch her breath from laughing too
hard
When you going to get the surgery? Taeyeon changed the subject
Tiffany thought for a while, trying to remember what the doctor had said
Next week Tiffany confirmed
Taeyeons face dropped to a pout
What am I to do while youre gone? Taeyeon whined
Go bully Jessica or Sooyoung. Or find a new nurse to scare off Tiffany shrugged
Taeyeon raised both her eyebrows and smiled as an evil plan formed in her head. Tiffany stared at
Taeyeon curiously as she watched Taeyeon think her plan through. She then knocked her forehead
to snap her out of it
I want you to be here when I come back. Dont do anything that will make Jessica kill you Tiffany
said sternly
Taeyeon made an ok sign with her fingers, but Tiffany could see the deviousness in Taeyeons eyes.
She was just glad she wasnt on the receiving end of Taeyeons idea
So youll be starting the operation next week right? That means youll have to be very careful with
your health Taeyeon said seriously
Tiffany just nodded lazily
Ill be sure to take care of you till then then. No more sneaking out, running around or messing
around for a week Taeyeon said with a nod
Tiffany scoffed
I highly doubt thats going to happen Tiffany mumbled
Taeyeon put on a shocked face as she used her hand to point to herself
Excuse me? She said in a high pitched tone I can be very responsible you know. I just choose not
to take the responsible road most of the time
Most? More like every time Tiffany laughed

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tiffany! Put a jumper on. Youll catch a cold Taeyeon scolded as she threw Tiffany a jumper
It was 5 days after Tiffany had received the news about her heart donor. Taeyeon stuck to her word
and the two hadnt been sneaking out, running around or messing about at all the past few days.
Youre not serious are you? Tiffany asked back in a cocky tone.
It was a warm day and she couldnt understand why Taeyeon was telling her to put on a jumper
I am very serious. Now put it on before I put it on for you. Just so you know, I broke off my cousins
dolls arm while trying to put on a dress it
Tiffanys eyes popped open at Taeyeons warning. Still she didnt want to be suffocating in the
jumper so she just grabbed it and chucked it onto Taeyeons bed
No thank you Tiffany said bluntly
I warned you Taeyeon shrugged as she walked casually to the jumper on her bed
She took the jumper and tried to find the front and back to it. Once she did find it she slowly walked
up to Tiffany with an evil smirk pasted onto her face. Tiffany backed up to the edge of her bed as she
watched Taeyeon get closer.
You going to put it on yourself now? Taeyeon gave one last warning
Tiffany shook her head stubbornly
Never
Taeyeon then flared her teeth as she pounced onto Tiffanys bed, pinning Tiffany down. Tiffany tried
to get out from under Taeyeon, but her body was being held down my Taeyeons own body.
Taeyeon sat on top of Tiffany, trying to find the opening of the jumper
This is harassment! Tiffany yelled as she nudged Taeyeons shoulder
I warned you Taeyeon said cold heartedly a she finally found the hole and positioned it over
Tiffanys head
Nooo Tiffany squealed as the jumper got lower and lower.
She then waited for the jumper to pass through her head and have her hands forcefully pulled
through, but there was nothing. She opened her eyes to see Taeyeon smirking at her.
Last chance Taeyeon offered

Tiffany shook her head sternly


Im going to suffocate in that thing Tiffany blurted out
Taeyeon disregarded Tiffanys complaint and lowered the jumper up to Tiffanys forehead. Tiffany
struggled, determined to not have the jumper put on her.
Aish Taeyeon said as she took paused
Tiffany used this chance to get out from Taeyeon. She closed her eyes and was about to kick
Taeyeon off when something interrupted her. The same soft sensation that she had felt four days
before on her lips had returned. She froze as the warmth spread through her again. She blinked
three times, trying to make sense of what was happening.
Before she could even come up to a conclusion the warmth disappeared and a material was put
around her. Her arms were then pulled through the material and everything was over in a matter of
seconds.
See? So much easier Taeyeon beamed as she got off of Tiffany and gave a peace sign.
Did Did you just Kiss me again? Tiffany stuttered
Taeyeon shrugged
It was the only way to stop you from struggling. Looks like it worked too Taeyeon finished off with
a smirk
Tiffany sat still for a few seconds, letting Taeyeons words sink in. When her brain finally clicked, her
face slowly changed from bewildered to confused, to understanding, and then finally to rage.
Taeyeon sat in front of Tiffany, enjoying the expressions she was making
You can become an actor like that Taeyeon commented
Tiffany shot Taeyeon a glare and threw her pillow at Taeyeon
Why do you keep stealing kisses? Tiffany whined as she hit Taeyeon again
Taeyeon let out a loud laugh as she blocked Tiffanys feeble attacks. She then caught Tiffanys pillow
and stared intensely into her eyes. Tiffany stopped moving as her arms slowly flopped to her side,
focusing on Taeyeons intense stare
Because Taeyeon lowered her voice. Youre cute, kind, beautiful, loving and
Tiffany swallowed down hard.
I love you Taeyeon said as she wiggled her eyebrows before letting go and laughing hysterically
Tiffany let out a sigh of relief before she turned her attention to Taeyeon again. Taeyeon was holding
her stomach and laughing non-stop. Tiffany growled under her breath as she grabbed her Totoro
plush and threw it at Taeyeon

The Totoro hit Taeyeon smack bang on the forehead. Taeyeon froze as she slowly collapsed on to
the bed from the impact of the hit.
Tiffany laughed as she Totoro landed on top of Taeyeons head
Oww Taeyeon said slowly
Tiffany smiled widely, proud of her attack
Taetoro is in pain Taeyeon complained
Aw come on. A ball of stuffing cant hurt you that bad Tiffany chuckled
Taeyeon sat up straight and held Totoro in her hands
Totoro, traitor. I thought you were on my side Taeyeon pouted
Tiffany yanked the plush toy back and stuck her tongue at Taeyeon
His mine first Tiffany teased
Taeyeon held her hands up in defeat
Taetoro is going to get something from Sooyoung. Ill be back later Taeyeon said as she got up
from her bed
Tiffany just nodded childishly with her chin rested against Totoros head
Oh by the way. The jumper is on backwards Taeyeon added before she exited the room
Tiffany moved the Totoro from her stomach and looked at her jumper. She then turned her head to
check her back. Finally she pulled the neck opening to find the tag at the front. Taeyeon had put
Tiffanys jumper on backwards.
That little Tiffany grumbled as she took the jumper off

Taeyeon exited the room and walked over to the nurses office area. Her chest was starting to hurt,
she had been laughing too hard and her lungs were being overworked.
Sooyoung Jessica Taeyeon gasped as she knocked on the door
One of the nurses opened the door and were shocked when they saw Taeyeon standing at the door,
grasping her chest and out of breath
Sooyoung! The nurse shrieked

Sooyoung came to the door and found Taeyeon double bent in front of it.
Jessica! Call a doctor! Sooyoung yelled as she got down to help Taeyeon.
Taeyeon how are you feeling?! You okay?! Sooyoung panicked as she rested Taeyeon against her
back
Taeyeons body went limp on top of Sooyoungs, using all the energy she had to try and calm her
lungs down
Taetoro is in pain Taeyeon mumbled
Sooyoung bit her lip as she piggybacked Taeyeon. A doctor came from behind and led them to the
examination room.
Taetoro is hurting Taeyeon whined again
Hang on for just a moment Taeyeon. Weve got help Sooyoung tried to sound reassuring but her
voice failed her
Whats going on?! Jessicas voice asked in a worried tone
Taeyeon came to the office like this. She says shes in pain Sooyoung explained quickly as she set
Taeyeon down on the bed.
Jessica immediately fixed an oxygen mask over Taeyeons face with a worried expression on her
face. The doctors proceeded with putting needles inside her and checking her breathing
Taetoro doesnt feel too good Taeyeon mumbled as she tried to breathe normally
Shh Jessica hushed as she helped the doctors
Sooyoung stood on the side as she watched the doctors do their job.
Thirty minutes had pass and Taeyeons condition had returned back to normal. Taeyeon was sitting
on the side of the bed as the doctors gave one last check-up. When everything was safe they
excused themselves, leaving Sooyoung, Jessica and Taeyeon in the room alone
Jessica walked up and gave Taeyeon a sharp knock to the head
Dont scare us like that again Jessica scolded
Taeyeon just gave off a weak smile
Sorry. Just laughing too hard Taeyeon apologized
Sooyoung came up and nudged Taeyeons shoulder
Do you have any idea how worried I was about you? Sooyoung said angrily
Sorry Taeyeon apologized again
Jessica and Sooyoung let out a sigh as they leaned against each other

I really think you should move to the critical area Taeyeon. Ive talked to you about this over and
over and you always say youll think about it Jessica frowned
Taeyeon just nodded guiltily
Im really sorry for troubling you guys. Taeyeon said sincerely I told you what my decision was
though. Until Tiffany is released from here, I wont go there
Jessica rolled her eyes
What is it with you and Tiffany? Its like youre inseparable
Taeyeon just smiled
Shes important to me Taeyeon answered
Sooyoung and Jessica waited for more but Taeyeon ended the conversation by taking her mask off.
I said Id be back soon. Ill see you two later Taeyeon said quietly as she exited the room
Jessica took the seat on the bed as Sooyoung patted her shoulder
Shes pushing herself too far Jessica sighed
Taeyeon just loves to live life to the full Sooyoung reassured
The sooner she gets in the critical ward, the sooner we can treat her Jessica whispered
Tiffanys surgery is in two days. Dont worry Taeyeons fine Sooyoung hugged Jessica
Shed better be Jessica hugged Sooyoung back

Im back~ Taeyeon beamed as she opened the door of her room


Welcome back Tiffany greeted
Tiffany was at their small desk with a pen in her hand and a piece of paper in the other.
What are you up to? Taeyeon said cheerfully
Writing a new wish Tiffany answered without looking back. This time you cant see it
Taeyeon pouted at Tiffanys last remark
Why not? Who knows, I might be able to grant it for you Taeyeon beamed as she leaned over
Tiffanys shoulder
Tiffany used her hand to cover up the note

No Tiffany said sternly as she stuck her tongue out


Araso, araso Taeyeon chuckled as she moved from Tiffany But that means you wont be able to
see my wish either
Tiffany just nodded, only half listening to Taeyeon
Taeyeon took a piece of paper and pen as she started writing down her wish
Ill put mine up first. No looking Tiffany warned as she took the old piece of paper off the window
and replaced it with the new one
Not even a peek? Taeyeon chuckled
No Tiffany answered bluntly as she finished putting the new wish up for the stars to see
Okay. You can put yours now Tiffany called back
Taeyeon walked up to the window sill and gripped the bottom of Tiffanys note, lifting it slightly.
Tiffany slapped Taeyeons hand away
Taeyeon-ah Dont please Tiffany whined
Taeyeon just smiled reassuringly as she patted Tiffanys head
Fine fine Taeyeon chuckled as she took her old wish down and replaced it with her new one
She then put her hands together and closed her eyes
Tiffany watched as she saw Taeyeon make her wish. She could see something wet on the side of
Taeyeons eyes.
Taeyeon you okay? Tiffany asked worriedly
Taeyeon opened her eyes and looked at Tiffany innocently
Yeah. Why? Taeyeon asked
Tiffany blinked a few times, realising that there was nothing there.
*Mustve been the reflection or something* Tiffany thought
Nothing Tiffany answered
Go back and rest. Your operation is soon Taeyeon said as she pushed Tiffany back to rest
Tiffany just nodded as she climbed into her bed.
What about you? Tiffany asked as she noticed Taeyeon jump into her own bed
Im a little tired today so I think Ill rest as well. Ill still be here when youre awake Taeyeon
reassured

Tiffany smiled at Taeyeons last sentence


Thanks Taeyeon Tiffany murmured as she slowly fell into a sleep

From outside their room window the two notes could be seen

Dear Mr and Mrs Star,


Please grant me this one wish,
I wish that Taeyeon would forever remain the dorky, kind and caring girl that she is now
From Tiffany Hwang

Forever wishing upon a star,


Please let me see the sunrise on my birthday alongside Tiffany.
That is all I wish for.

Chapter Seven:
Tiffany. Hurry were going to be late Taeyeon called out from the road ahead of Tiffany
Wait. I cant catch up Tiffany huffed as she bent over and tried to catch her breath
Just a little further. Come. If we miss this I wont forgive you Taeyeon threatened as she turned
around and started running over the hill, disappearing from Tiffanys sight
Tiffany rolled her eyes as she started running up the hill. When she reached the top she saw Taeyeon
already at the bottom, even purchasing some ice cream
Hurry before I eat your ice cream Taeyeon smiled dorkily as she gave a lick to both ice creams
*Where does she get this stamina?!* Tiffany thought to herself as she pushed herself even further
Slow poke Taeyeon teased once Tiffany reached the bottom
Tiffany just put her hand onto Taeyeons shoulder and was double bent as she closed her eyes and
breathed in heavily
You made me wait too long Taeyeon chuckled
Mianhe Tiffany huffed as she looked up.
As she did, something caught her eye.
In Taeyeons hands, instead of the ice creams, there was the bleeding heart flower.
You made we wait too long Taeyeon said again a little slower
Tiffany raised her eyebrow and stared at Taeyeon suspiciously
My heart has waited for you for too long Taeyeon whispered as she looked down at the plant
Tiffany followed her gaze to see the single flower starting to wither away.
Whats wrong? Tiffany asked curiously as she took a closer look at the flower
You took too long Taeyeon replied glumly
Why do you keep saying that? Tiffany frowned as she looked into Taeyeons eyes
Taeyeon just gave a warming smile as she passed the pot plant to Tiffany.
I cant wait anymore Tiffany. Im tired of waiting. Taeyeons smile began to quiver
The single flower on the plant was withering away with a more rapid speed.
What cant you wait for? Taeyeon tell me whats going in Tiffany felt something inside begin to
move faster
I waited for yours Taeyeon said as she pointed Tiffanys chest where her heart was located

As Taeyeons finger touched Tiffanys clothes the flower dropped from the stem and fell pass the pot
and onto the floor. Tiffany looked up to see Taeyeons image slowly disappearing
Where you going Taeyeon?! Tiffanys voice cracked
Taeyeon just gave a nervous smile and started waving. A lonesome tear escaped her left eye and
slowly fell down her cheek. Taeyeon used her thumb to wipe away the tear and gave a sympathetic
laugh
Its too late Taeyeon said slowly before her image completely faded away
Tiffany dropped the pot and reached out to Taeyeon, trying to grab onto her, but all she grabbed
was thin air. She looked down to see the pot still falling slowly as though time was slowed down.
Taeyeon-ah! Dont leave me! Tiffany panicked as she looked around herself
She made a full turn and desperately tried to search for someone. To her realisation everything was
starting to fade to white. The only thing that wasnt was the bleeding hearts pot which was still
falling dramatically slow towards the floor.
Then slowly, Tiffany saw a flash of colour on the plant. The flower bud which was right beside the
withered ones remains was beginning to bloom
Tiffany watched as she watched the flower bloom.
Its all too late A voice echoed
Tiffany fell to her knees and the pot began to fall at a normal speed, the smashing sound echoing
into the nothingness.
Taeyeon Tiffany sobbed as everything disappeared, leaving her and the broken pot pieces and
plant remains.
Taeyeon Tiffany sobbed again

Tiffany? Tiffany, are you okay? Taeyeons voice suddenly rang through the white empty space
Tiffany felt her body shake a little.
Tiffany whats wrong? Taeyeons voice rang again
Tiffanys body shook again. The broken pot began to turn black and spread through the white
nothingness. With each shake Tiffanys body took everything soon became black
Finally Tiffany felt herself blink a few times. Her vision getting blurry and unclear
She blinked a few more times as the head of a familiar person was situated in front of her.

Are you okay? the figures voice said with concern


Finally everything became clear enough for Tiffany to see. She was inside her hospital room with
Taeyeon right in front of her with a worried expression on
Taeyeon gave a sigh of relief and hugged Tiffany
You looked like you had a nightmare. Dont worry its over now Taeyeon reassured as she patted
Tiffanys back
As Tiffanys cheek hit Taeyeons shoulder she felt something wet near her eye.
Tears.
It was all a dream Tiffany whispered unstably
Its over now Taeyeon repeated as she stopped patting Tiffanys back and began rubbing it to calm
her down
Relief rushed through Tiffanys body.
Everything is alright now Taeyeon continued
Tiffany felt a smile on her face as she moved her arms and wrapped them around Taeyeons body.
Bringing her closer, enabling her to regain the familiar scent of Taeyeon and feel the warmth of her
body
Youre still here Tiffany whispered as she tightened her grip
Taeyeon nodded on Tiffanys shoulder
I told you Id be here when you wake up didnt I? chuckled Taeyeon
Tiffany just buried her head deeper into Taeyeons shoulders
The two remained in the hugging position for another minute before Taeyeon pulled away, feeling a
little stiff. Tiffany reluctantly pulled away too, but felt much better knowing that everything was just
a dream
I heard you starting to murmur and then you started tossing and turning. I got really worried so I
went up to you to find you in tears. Is everything alright? Are you worried about something?
Taeyeon said adoringly
Tiffany used her finger to wipe away the left over tears and just gave Taeyeon a small smile
Just a little stressed thats all Tiffany chuckled
Taeyeon nodded as she patted Tiffanys head
Its alright. Im here if you ever need to talk
Tiffany nodded as she checked the time

It was still early in the morning


Sorry I woke you up Tiffany mumbled softly
Taeyeon just shook her head slowly
I was already up
So early?
Taeyeon just shrugged
Your operation is tomorrow right? Taeyeon suddenly asked
Oh right yeah Tiffany said slowly
Taeyeon then flashed a guilty smile
I wont be able to be here for a while, so I cant stay with you during the operation Taeyeon said
slowly
Tiffanys heart sank
Why?! Tiffanys voice broke. Youre alright arent you?! Nothings happening?! Tiffany added
quickly
Taeyeons eyes opened wide as she stared at Tiffany. Soon after though she started laughing out
loud
No need to panic Taeyeon chuckled. Im going to visit my family for a while. Theyre back in Korea
for a short time and suggested I stay with them while theyre in Korea Taeyeon explained patiently
Tiffany let out a sigh of relief but then her eyebrows furrowed
When are you going?
Ill go once you start your operation. Ill be back after a week though. It will give you enough time to
recover without me hassling you Taeyeon smiled
Tiffany just nodded slowly
Go back to sleep. Youre going to need to be healthy tomorrow Taeyeon patted Tiffanys head and
pushed her slightly towards her pillow
Tiffany remained still and stared at Taeyeon intensely
That means we wont see each other for a week Tiffany pouted
Taeyeon chuckled and nodded
Dont worry its just a week. I last three years without seeing you. I think you can last a week. Now
go sleep before I tie you down to it Taeyeon said as she slowly pushed Tiffany onto her back and
pulled the blanket over her

Love you Taeyeon whispered


Tiffany nudged Taeyeons arm
If you keep saying that I might actually believe you one day Tiffany complained, thinking that
Taeyeon was just joking around
Taeyeon just smiled contently and stuck her tongue out
Saranghae Taeyeon repeated
Tiffany frowned and turned her back around.
She used her hand to cover her chest; her heart was starting to beat faster.
From behind she could hear Taeyeon snickering to herself
*Pabo* Tiffany thought to herself as she closed her eyes tightly

Ewww Tiffany exclaimed as she pushed the bowl of porridge away. I dont like bird food
Taeyeon, who was standing at their small table, turned her head around and raised her eyebrow
Bird food? Taeyeon questioned
Tiffany nodded stubbornly
Taeyeon put down the paper she was holding in her hand and walked over to Tiffany
Here. Ill feed you Taeyeon said lowly as she grabbed the bowl and took a spoonful
She then held it up for Tiffany to eat
Tiffany shook her head
No thank you Tiffany said sternly and turned her head away
Dont make me force you again. Remember last time I tried to force you into something? Taeyeon
smirked
Tiffany stiffened
But I dont like that Tiffany whined
There are a lot of things we dont like. Just eat this and then Ill give you some sweets Taeyeon
bargained
Tiffany turned her head slowly and raised her eyebrow at Taeyeon

Really? Tiffany questioned


Taeyeon nodded her head as she pushed the spoon closer to Tiffany
Tiffany looked at the spoon. Her stomach began to turn as she looked at the porridge. Reluctantly
and slowly though, she mechanically opened her mouth and Taeyeon fed her
Tiffanys face scrunched up as she swallowed the food in her mouth
Ergh Tiffany exclaimed as she coughed up some of the porridge
Taeyeon chuckled at Tiffanys reaction
Be right back Taeyeon smiled reassuringly as she left the room
Tiffany sat still as she waited for Taeyeons return, hoping Taeyeon would change her lunch
Taeyeon then came back with the same bowl of porridge. Tiffanys heart sank rock bottom.
Here said Taeyeon as she scooped up the porridge and put it next to Tiffanys mouth again.
Tiffany gave Taeyeon a pleading look
Taeyeon just shook her head sternly and motioned at the spoon again. Once again Tiffany slowly
opened her mouth and allowed Taeyeon to feed her again.
This time though, there was something different about the porridge. It was rather sweet rather than
bland.
Tiffany looked down at the bowl to see Taeyeon write a message in the porridge with honey
This better?
Tiffany quickly looked up to look at Taeyeon
Well? Taeyeon said expectantly
Tiffany swallowed the food in her mouth and smiled
Much better. Thanks Tiffany answered happily
I never really like porridge either. Honey makes it a lot better though Taeyeon chuckled
Tiffany nodded eagerly
Im sure you can feed yourself now? Taeyeon suggested
Tiffany shook her head
You said youd look after me remember? Tiffany reminded
Really? I dont remember Taeyeon raised her shoulders and shook her head
Tiffany felt the sides of her lips fall into a frown

Taeyeon gave a quick smirk and leaned in to kiss Tiffanys lips


Joking. Course I remember Taeyeon chuckled
Tiffany was still left sitting still.
Taeyeon had been giving her random kisses out of nowhere but she still wasnt used to it. She
thought it was Taeyeons way of teasing her so never took it seriously
How many times did I tell you not to do that? Tiffany exclaimed as she slammed her hand against
the bed
Taeyeon shrugged
Lost count Taeyeon said bluntly
Taeyeon then took up the spoon again and fed Tiffany. Tiffany refused
Aw come on. I was just joking Taeyeon whined as she put the spoon down
Tiffany shook her head
Taeyeon? Sooyoungs voice rang through the room
Taeyeon looked back to see Sooyoung standing at the entrance
Yes Sooyoung? Taeyeon said innocently
Sooyoung nodded behind her as a tall male stepped from behind
Your brother is here to pick you up Sooyoung smiled softly
Taeyeon jumped off of Tiffanys bed and hugged
Ji Woong Oppa Taeyeon said excitedly
Ji Woong chuckled huskily as he patted Taeyeons back
You ready? Hayeon misses you Ji Woong said as he pulled Taeyeon away and moved her bangs
away from her eyes
I thought you were coming later Taeyeon pouted
We wanted to see you as soon as possible though. We were hoping that you wouldve grown Ji
Woong measured Taeyeon against him using his hand. His hand only hit below his shoulder.
Taeyeon slapped Ji Woongs hand away
Dont expect the impossible Taeyeon grumbled
Ji Woong laughed as he patted Taeyeons head
Well lets go Ji Woong smiled as he started walking out

Can you come back later this night? Ive still got a few things to do here Taeyeon interrupted
Ji Woong raised his eyebrow as he looked around the small room. His eye finally caught Tiffany who
was sitting in her bed
Oh sorry I didnt realise someone was here Ji Woong apologised and bowed to Tiffany
Tiffany just shook her hands defensively
Oh no its okay. Tiffany reassured
So can you come by later Oppa? Taeyeon asked
Ji Woong stared at Taeyeon confusingly
Taeyeon took her hands and made them into a cute paw as she put it underneath her chin. She then
tilted her head to the side and used her aegyo
Please Oppa Taeyeon begged
Sooyoung on the side started choking up and Ji Woong backed away from Taeyeon
Tiffany just blinked three times as she saw Taeyeons aegyo
Ji Woong uncomfortably rubbed the back of his neck, obviously a little flustered
*Sister complex* Tiffany immediately thought. *Then again, who could resist that* Tiffany added as
she titled her head to the side in thought
Okay. 5pm sharp. Ji Woong said sternly
Thanks Oppa Taeyeon smiled as she gave him another hug
Tiffany sat there silently as Sooyoung and Ji Woong exited the room, finally leaving her and Taeyeon
alone again
You didnt have to stay you know Tiffany interjected as soon as they were alone
Taeyeon just shrugged
I said I will be mature and look after you till the operation and Im sticking to that promise.
Taeyeon said with a nod
Tiffany felt a smile grow on her face
Taeyeon then approached Tiffany and sat beside her bed
Two hours left until your operation huh? Taeyeon suddenly sighed
Tiffany just nodded slowly
Are you nervous? Taeyeon asked

Tiffany shook her head


I know that Ill be fine after. I guarantee it. Tiffany said confidently
Taeyeon chuckled
Well Im nervous for you
Tiffany raised her eyebrow
Taeyeon turned her whole torso towards Tiffany
When your operation is done and youre okay remember to call me as soon as you can Taeyeon
stared intensely into Tiffanys eyes
Tiffany blinked twice
I wont be able to stop worrying until I know youre safe. So please call me when youre okay
Taeyeon said seriously
Ermmm Sure, okay Tiffany said confusingly
Taeyeon nodded approvingly as she grabbed Tiffanys phone and put her number in
I put it on speed dial. As SOON as youre okay Taeyeon emphasized
Tiffany giggled
Yes Taeyeon. I will call you as soon as I can move my arms and use speed dial Tiffany reassured
Taeyeon nodded and put the phone down
For the last hour what do you want to do? Taeyeon asked excitedly
Tiffany tilted her head to the side and shrugged
Oh! Taeyeon suddenly said as she quickly jumped up and went to their table.
Tiffany got off her bed and walked over to Taeyeon curiously
Paper cranes Taeyeon smiled as she held up some folding paper
Paper cranes? Tiffany raised her eyebrow
Taeyeon nodded
They say that on the thousandth crane your wish will come true. We can cheat and just make it
fifty Taeyeon whispered cheekily
Tiffany smiled sideways at Taeyeons idea
You know how to make one right? Taeyeon asked
Tiffany just nodded as she took the pink piece of paper and folded it in half

First one to fifty wins Taeyeon cheered as she brought the paper to her bed and started folding
Tiffany stood there as she watched Taeyeon focus on folding the paper into cranes. Her heart began
to feel warm and fuzzy
She looked at the time.
One hour left before she goes into her operation. One hour left before the two separate for a whole
week. One hour before everything begins
One hour

Chapter Eight:
What is THAT? Taeyeon said as she pointed to the crane that Tiffany had made
It was just barely passable as a crane but its beak was bent in different directions, its wings were
uneven and the whole origami figure overall looked as though a five year old had made it
Its a crane Tiffany said innocently
Taeyeons jaw dropped as she raised an eyebrow at Tiffany
Thats a crane? Taeyeon said shockingly
Tiffany lifted both her eyebrows and tilted her head to the side
Yeah?
Taeyeon stiffly turned her head to the crane again
Poor animal Taeyeon pouted as she patted its head
Hey! Tiffany yelled as she pushed Taeyeon playfully
Do you want me to teach you properly? Taeyeon suggested
Tiffany shook her head
I can do mine thank you very much she huffed
Taeyeon looked at Tiffany with surprised eyes. She just then shrugged and returned to folding cranes
Tiffany took up another piece of paper and started folding it. She wasnt really good with folding
paper but she didnt want Taeyeon to have another thing against her.
As the minutes passed by Taeyeon already had thirty cranes done whilst Tiffany only had ten.
Tiffany paused and pouted
Taeyeon Tiffany whined
Taeyeon looked up from her half folded crane and up at Tiffany
Help me please? Tiffany whined as she looked at the measly folded cranes
Taeyeon chuckled as she picked up one of the cranes
Poor things Taeyeon smiled as she dropped them down back onto the bed
Tiffany pouted
Here Taeyeon smiled as she gave Tiffany all her cranes
A little boost Taeyeon smiled
Tiffanys pout soon disappeared and grew into a smile

Thanks Tiffany smiled


Taeyeon just nodded as she continued making her cranes
Tiffany sat there and watched as she watched Taeyeon concentrate. Her tongue stuck to the side of
her mouth whenever she was folding the small parts, making sure that it didnt rip.
Tiffany then had a thought run through her mind
As Taeyeon was finishing off and pulling the wings to finish off, Tiffany leaned in slowly.
Taeyeon was still trying to fix the crane to make the back seem fuller.
From the side she then felt something soft against her cheeks.
Taeyeon looked to the side to see Tiffany pulling away with a smirk growing on her face
Just small thanks Tiffany smiled
Taeyeon was dumbfounded. Her cheeks slowly began to feel warmer as they started growing pink.
She quickly turned away to avoid Tiffany raising suspicions
Ermm... No problem Taeyeon said quietly
Tiffany turned her head to the side to see Taeyeons expression but Taeyeon turned away again
Tiffany Jessica called from the door
Taeyeon and Tiffany turned their heads towards the door
Yes Jessica? Tiffany called back
Jessica walked in with a few nurses and doctors behind her
It was time
I thought it doesnt start till another half hour said Tiffany
We need to prepare you for the operation. It will take around half an hour Jessica said slowly
Tiffany let out a long sigh but nodded
Sure okay Tiffany whispered
Taeyeon turned her head back to look at Tiffany.
Dont worry. Everythings okay. All the best surgeons are there right? And you have a lot of strong
will too Taeyeon encouraged
Tiffany nodded again
Okay Ill go outside Taeyeon smiled as she got off the bed
Tiffany held her hand back

But
Taeyeon looked back at Tiffany
Jessica rolled her eyes as she turned around
Turn around she whispered to the others
The others smiled and turned their backs towards Taeyeon and Tiffany
You wont be here when its done Tiffany whispered
Taeyeon raised her eyebrows
Youre going back for a week Tiffany continued
A wide grin grew on Taeyeons face as she turned back and face Tiffany
Ill be back after a week. I promise. Until then make sure youre healthy Taeyeon chuckled as she
patted Tiffanys forehead
Tiffany closed her eyes and nodded
Taeyeon, your brother is down at the lobby if you want to go. He was waiting for you Sooyoung
popped her head in and informed Taeyeon
Taeyeon nodded.
Promise one week? Tiffany gripped onto Taeyeons hand
Taeyeon just made a peace sign with her other hand
Of course. One week Taeyeon said confidently. Besides, my birthday is in eight days. Ill be back
so you can take me see the sunrise
Tiffany looked at the calendar on the side of the room. Taeyeons birthday was indeed eight days
away
Still keeping your promise arent you? Taeyeon smirked
Of course I am Tiffany smiled as she held up her pinky
If you two are done? Jessica interrupted
Taeyeon chuckled as she walked up to Jessica
We are now Taeyeon answered
Tiffany watched as Taeyeon grabbed a bag beside her bed and exited the room
See you on my birthday Taeyeon called out and waved as she walked out
See you Tiffany mumbled

With that Taeyeon and Tiffany went their ways


Taeyeon went down to reception with her bag and met up with her brother.
Took you a while Ji Woong chuckled
Taeyeon just shrugged
Hows Hayeon now? Taeyeon asked
Shes grown taller. Shes probably taller than you Ji Woong teased
Taeyeon just elbowed him in the stomach
Lets go. I want to see Hayeon again Taeyeon smiled as she walked out of the hospital

Tiffany sat there as the doctors and nurses started putting needles into her arm. She had changed
into her operation clothes and was now just waiting for the nurses to bring her to the operation
room where the surgeons were waiting
Okay you ready? Jessica asked
Tiffany just nodded.
They then proceeded to wheel Tiffany into the room. As they entered the bright light blinded
Tiffanys eyes
When her eyes readjusted the surgeons held a mask over her face
Count to ten and relax said the surgeon
Tiffany just nodded as the mask was adjusted to her head
One
Two
Three
Four
Five
Tiffany began to feel sleepy. Her vision began to blur as her eyelids got heavier
Six
Seven
Eight

Nine

Tiffany didnt quite get to ten before she fell into a deep sleep.

One blink
Two blinks
Three
Tiffanys vision began to come back to her with each blink
Tiffany you okay? a muffled voice rang through the blurry vision
Tiffany blinked a few more times.
Taeyeon? Tiffany murmured
The voice chuckled
Tiffany. Its me, Yuri
Tiffanys vision then became clear
She was expecting to see Taeyeon in front of her, but to her surprise it was her friend Yuri.
Yuri? Tiffanys voice was hoarse
How are you feeling? Yuri said with concern
Tiffany turned her head to the side and rubbed her eyes
Thirsty Tiffany croaked
Yuri nodded as she poured a cup of water for Tiffany
Here Yuri smiled
Tiffany weakly held the glass in her hand and took a drink from it, soothing her dry throat
Thanks said Tiffany
Yuri nodded slowly as she sat back down her seat
Tiffany finally had a chance to look around

She was in the same familiar room that she and Taeyeon had shared. The same wishes stuck onto
the window, the same pot plant that still had one single blooming flower
She then looked to the side where she was expecting to see Taeyeon resting.
Shock ran through her when she saw it neatly made and empty
Ill be back after a week
Tiffanys body then relaxed when she remembered that Taeyeon had gone to visit her family for a
week
Wheres your friend? Yuri asked as she followed Tiffanys gaze
Tiffany just let out a small smile
Going to visit her family for a while Tiffany answered barely audibly
I see Yuri nodded awkwardly
Tiffany looked at the calendar again
How long was I out? Tiffany murmured
Five days Yuri answered confidently
Five?! Tiffany raised her voice
Yuri jumped back
Yeah. The operation was a success but it knocked you out for five days. Yuri answered quickly
Tiffany rolled her eyes as she looked around for her phone
Wheres my phone? Tiffany asked when she didnt find it on her table
Here. I charged it for you Yuri said as she pulled the phone from her bag and handed it to Tiffany
Tiffany quickly opened up her phone and searched for Taeyeons number
Calm down Yuri chuckled at Tiffanys urgency
Tiffany rolled her eyes as she held the phone up to her ear
Ring Ring
Ring Ring
Hello? answered a masculine voice
Tiffany frowned as she pulled her phone down and checked the ID
Call as soon as youre okay

*Im sure this is the number* Tiffany thought to herself


Hello~? the voice said again
Hello, is this Kim Taeyeons phone Tiffany asked nervously
Sorry but no. This is her fathers number The voice said confusingly
Tiffany blinked a few times
Are you Taeyeons friend? the father asked
Ah. Yes Tiffany answered nervously
I see. Taeyeon told me that if her friend were to call to tell her. Unfortunately Taeyeon has gone
out with her brother and sister for a while. Is there a message youd like to send? he asked patiently
Tiffany bit her lower lip
Ah. Can you please tell her that Im sorry for not calling sooner and and that Ill see her soon
Tiffany added hesitantly
I see. I will pass on the message. The father chuckled
Thank you. Bye Tiffany said disheartedly
Excuse me the father interrupted before Tiffany could hang up. Id like to say thank you, for being
there for my daughter. It means the world to her to have a friend.
Tiffany smiled widely
Its nothing really. Im glad I could have someone like her besides me too Tiffany said embarrassed
The father let out a small chuckle
I see Thank you again ermm Im sorry I didnt catch your name
Tiffany Tiffany answered politely
I see. Thank you Tiffany
Thank you Mr Kim Tiffany replied before the two got off the line
Mr Kim? Yuri raised her eyebrow. Were not getting into a scandal now are we? Yuri joked
Tiffany shot a glare at Yuri
No Taeyeon told me to call that number as soon as I was conscious. I thought itd be hers but it
was actually her fathers Tiffany said with a dumbfounded expression
Your little friend is cute you know Yuri suddenly sighed
I beg your pardon? said Tiffany in a surprised expression

Shes small but not too small. She seems really kind and caring. And after going through all your
stuff, she seems like a total dork. Whos Taetoro anyway? Yuri asked
Tiffany giggled at Taeyeons nickname
Taetoro is a special friend of mine and Totoros Tiffany answered proudly
I see. Yuri said confusingly
Tiffany just smiled innocently as she put her phone onto the table next to her
As she turned her body there was a little sting on her chest. She looked down and gasped to see
stitches on her chest
Yeah A little aftermath Yuri bit her lower lip nervously
Tiffany raised her eyebrow as she saw the scar run down her chest
It will go away eventually Yuri said hesitantly
Tiffany let out a long sigh and nodded
So its the 6th of March today? Tiffany turned her attention away from her scar
Yeah. Why? Yuri said boredly as she rested her chin against the palm of her hand
Tiffany just smiled to herself
A little date Tiffany answered cheekily
Yuri fell forward as her chin slipped off her hand
What?! Yuri said surprisingly
Tiffany gave an innocent pout
Who are you dating? Yuri immediately questioned
Tiffany chuckled
Not an actual date. Im going to take Taeyeon to see the sunrise on her birthday Tiffany explained
Yuri frowned as her shoulders slumped
Thats all? Yuri said disappointedly
Should there be anymore? Tiffany asked back
I dont know. Do you want more? Yuri grinned
Whats that supposed to mean? Tiffany glared
Yuri just shrugged

I happen to come across that Taeyeons diary. Seems a little interesting Yuri smiled
Diary? Tiffany raised her eyebrow
Yuri nodded towards the table where there was a small book neatly placed
Want to read? Yuri smirked
Tiffany stared at the small book on the table. Curiosity started to run through her.
*I wonder what she wrote* Tiffany thought curiously
She then shook her head
No thank you. Diaries are not meant to be read Tiffany said stubbornly
Yuri gave Tiffany a teasing stare
You sure about that? Yuri asked teasingly
Tiffany closed her eyes and shook her head.
Yuri chuckled
Tiffany opened one of her eyes and looked at Yuri, she was staring at Tiffany with an evil smirk
What? Tiffany asked coldly
Yuri just shrugged
Well. I gotta go. Ill probably come visit tomorrow Yuri smiled
Tiffany opened her eyes and grabbed onto Yuris hand
Thanks for visiting Tiffany smiled
No problem Yuri chuckled. Take care of yourself
I will Tiffany reassured
Yuri nodded as she walked to the door, passing the diary. She stopped midway to the door and
reversed to the table
Here. Just some reading material Yuri winked as she threw Tiffany a diary
Tiffany fumbled with the diary, until she finally caught it
Im not going to read it Tiffany said defensively
Yuri shrugged
It was just a suggestion. I have to go now. See you tomorrow Yuri gave a wide cheesy smile before
she exited the room

Tiffany sat on the bed with the small blue diary in her hands
No I cant do this Tiffany said to herself as she held the diary away
She stared at the temptation in her hands
No, no, no Tiffany shook her head as she put the diary on Taeyeons bed
When she put the diary on her bed she paused
She was going to be alone in the hospital for another two days
Taeyeon was in the outside world with her family whilst she was still inside the four walls. Her finger
ran along the bed sheets of the empty bed
Loneliness ran through her.
*Just two more days until shes back* Tiffany thought determinedly as she walked back to her bed
Silence filled the room
*Two days*

Chapter Nine:
You seem a little jittery. Are you okay? Yuri asked curiously
Tiffany just nodded and smiled
*One more day* she thought determinedly
You cant wait for your little date cant you? Yuri wiggled her eyebrows
Tiffany stopped and stared at Yuri accusingly
Well its true isnt it? Yuri quickly defended
Tiffany let out a sigh
The doctors said you should be able to be released again within another few days. They said youre
healing quite fast Yuri informed
Tiffany nodded slowly
Hey Yuri Could you take me out to go buy something? I want to give Taeyeon something for her
birthday Tiffany asked slowly
Yuri raised her eyebrows
What did you have in mind?
Tiffany turned to the side and took out a small box. She opened the small box and took out the heart
shaped necklace that Taeyeon had given her and showed it to Yuri
Something similar but better than this Tiffany smiled
Wow Yuri gasped as she took the necklace She gave this to you?
Tiffany nodded
I want to get something for her as well
Yuri just nodded
I think I know the perfect thing. Youll have to stay here and rest though Yuri smiled
Tiffanys jaw dropped
But I want to pick the present Tiffany whined
I cant do that. Im not taking responsibility if you start to hurt or something. Im not that good with
looking after others Yuri explained
Tiffany frowned
Ill send you pictures of everything I find thats suitable and you can text me which one you like.
Okay? Yuri offered

Tiffany pouted
Doctors orders Yuri shrugged
Fine Tiffany sighed in defeat
Ill send you the first pictures soon Yuri patted Tiffanys head
Hurry. I want something to entertain me for a while Tiffany whined
Araso Yuri chuckled as she picked up her bag and walked out of the room
Tiffany watched as the door slowly closed, giving off a loud click once it hit the door. She was alone
again
Tiffany smiled to herself encouragingly as she got out of the bed and walked over to the window sill.
She picked up the water bottle that was placed there and gave the plant a few dollops of water.
Why wont the second flower bloom Tiffany whispered as she lowered herself to eye level with the
plant
Youre making your friend wait too long Tiffany smiled as she turned her head to the side and
admired the already blooming flower
Its been over a week and yet the flower was still as beautiful as ever, not withering or giving off any
signs of it being a week old
You made me wait too long
Tiffany quickly sat up straight at Taeyeons voice
The images of Taeyeon disappearing into thin air were replaying through Tiffanys head. The scene
of her figure was just blown away like sand in a windy storm, the sudden freeze in time when the pot
plant fell, the flower blooming all too late before it was totally destroyed by the impact of the fall.
Tiffany shook her head to clear her mind. She then felt a finger press against her chest
I waited for yours
Tiffany used her hand to press against her chest.
Waited for what? Tiffany whispered to herself as she kneeled to the floor
She turned her body around and leaned against the wall in confusion. What did her dream mean?
What did Taeyeon wait for?
As Tiffany sat there trying to make sense of things, something caught her eye. On top of Taeyeons
bed there was something glistening.
It was Taeyeons diary. Its glittering cover was reflecting the sun that was creeping through the
curtains and into Tiffanys eyes

Tiffany slowly got up and walked to the diary. She slowly picked it. The diary seemed to pulse in her
hand as temptation started to grow on her.
Tiffany opened the cover of the diary before quickly shutting it again
*I cant do this. Its an invasion of privacy* Tiffany scolded herself
The diary pulsed again
I happen to come across that Taeyeons diary. Seems a little interesting Yuris voice reminded her
*Im sure she wouldnt mind* Tiffany thought to herself as she bit her lower lip and slowly opened
the cover of the small book
Shes back! Shes back! After three years shes back! I thought we would meet under different
circumstances but this is good enough I guess Her nickname water balloon seems to have caught
on to Yoona and Hyoyeon though I wonder if she minds that
Tiffany blinked a few times as she read the first entry. She then skipped a few pages and read the
entry there
Tiffany moved in with me again. Its really exciting. Now Jessica and Sooyoung wont have to run
around the whole building trying to find me anymore (hehe). Sooyoung has to learn how to go a
little easier though. Its not like theres anything wrong with my ability to walk. Jessica may be a pain
but she understands me more
Tiffany skipped a few more pages
I was walking back from Jessicas check-up again. She just doesnt take no for an answer. Oh I found
two lollipops from Sooyoungs secret stash. I gave one to Tiffany one. Turned out she got my
favourite flavour. So I stole it from her (kekeke). Her face was just priceless! Anyway, we went to the
spring fair after that. A kind lady gave us a bleeding heart flower. The name sounds a little
depressing Well be able to see it bloom soon though. Hwaiting
Tiffany smiled as she looked up at the flower
*Its really pretty too* Tiffany commented in her head
Tiffany has a heart donor now! So excited but worried at the same time. Dont think the worse,
dont think the worse, dont think the worse. We visited Timmy again today. His food was great as
usual. On the way home we stopped by the beach. How I miss playing on that beach. I wish I could
do it soon again. Dear diary I have a confession this confession, if revealed, may break my
friendship with Tiffany I really dont want to tell her My confession is Dont worry diary. Taetoro
will tell you next time
Tiffanys eyes immediate opened wide as she brought the diary closer to her eyes and reread the last
few lines. She quickly skipped a few more pages and read on
She still thinks its a joke. Isnt that funny? Well Id like to keep it that way. At least we can remain
friends. Oh, diary, I have to tell you about the bleeding hearts plant. One of its flowers bloomed. It is

really daebak. Its pink and is heart shaped. You have to see it to believe it. One of the most beautiful
flowers Ive ever seen!
Tiffany frowned
*What was her confession?* Tiffany thought determinedly to herself
Its a few more days until Tiffanys surgery. My parents called me this morning. They asked me to
spend some time with them. I really miss Hayeon and Oppa. They are rarely in the country. It hurts. I
remember how lonely it was here, constantly finding Jessica and Sooyoung to chase away my
loneliness. Thats all a thing of the past now. I have Tiffany beside me now. I must be really fortunate
to have her with me. Once Tiffany starts her surgery I will pay my parents a visit.
Just then Tiffanys phone rang. Tiffany jumped with surprise as the diary dropped to the floor.
Tiffany grumbled to herself as she opened her phone

To: Tiffany
What do you think?
From: Yuri

Tiffany scrolled through the list of photos when one caught her eye.
It was a simple silver bracelet yet she could see that it would fit Taeyeons wrist perfectly. Simple yet
elegant. It was a must have for Tiffany

To: Yuri
Definitely this one
From: Tiffany

Tiffany sent the text message and smiled to herself

To: Tiffany
Well picked. Ill bring it to you soon. Want something while Im out?
From: Yuri

To: Yuri
Dont wrap it. Buy a bear for me and put it around its neck or wrist (whichever fits).
From: Tiffany

To: Tiffany
Will do
From: Yuri

Tiffany then locked her phone and put it back into her pocket and then grabbed up the diary again.
*I really hope she comes back soon* Tiffany sighed as she stood up and put the book back on
Taeyeons empty bed.
As she walked pass the window sill and onto her bed, the flower bud which had yet to bloom began
to open ever so slightly.

Yes thank you Yuri bowed politely as she walked out the gift store with a bear in her arms
She then reached into her bag to bring out the box which contained the bracelet. She took the
bracelet out of its box and measured it against the bear
It fit perfectly on its neck so Yuri decided to attach it there for Tiffany
That is one lucky girl Yuri chuckled as she held the bear up to the sun
Oppa
Yuri heard a girl sobbing
Oppa where is unnie? the girl sobbed again
This time a huskier voice answered
Unnie is just going to rest a little Dont worry Shell be back soon
Yuri put the bear down to look for the two who were conversing. On her left she saw a girl on a
bench with a young male beside her. The girl was in tears and the male seemed very lost
Yuri decided to walk up to them and see if they needed help
Are you guys looking for something? Yuri asked slowly

The male looked up and stared into Yuris eyes


Were fine thank you he sighed
Yuri raised her eyebrow as she gave him a questionable look
Unnie the girl beside her started crying harder, using the back of her hand to wipe away her
tears
Yuris heart ached as she saw the girl cry
Are you okay? Yuri asked the smaller girl
The girl looked up to Yuri with tearful eyes but then covered her eyes again with her hands and cried
even more
U-Unnie left Hayeon again. Hayeon still wants to play with Unnie the girl sobbed
Yuri looked to the older male
Our sister is just going to take a break. She will come and play with us soon the male reassured as
he patted the girls head
Yuri looked again at the tearful girl
Here Yuri suddenly said as she took the bracelet off the bears neck
She then patted the bears head before giving it to the girl
Take it. Its a little gift to cheer you up Yuri smiled warmly to the girl
The girl looked up from her crying and stared at the bear, but she shook her head
Unnie said to never take things from others the girl sobbed innocently
Thank you for offering she added
Yuri blinked. Surprised that such a young little girl could be so polite
Well arent you a good little girl Yuri chuckled as she patted the girls head
Her sister taught her well the male chuckled
Yuri nodded
Listen Im sure your unnie will be back soon. Older people get very tired these days. Im also sure
that she wouldnt want you to be seen like this. You have to be a brave girl, dry your tears and wait
patiently for her. Then you will truly be a good girl Yuri said reassuringly
Really? the girl said hopefully
Positive Yuri answered proudly with a nod

The girl nodded proudly as well as she used her hand to wipe away her tears
The male beside her chuckled as he reached into his pocket to pull out tissues
Im sure Taeyeon wouldnt want you to dirty yourself either he chuckled
The girl nodded as she took the tissues and wiped herself
Taeyeon? Yuri suddenly said with her eyebrows raised
The male turned to the side and looked at Yuri confusingly
Yeah Taeyeon is my younger sister the male said slowly
Taeyeon as in Kim Taeyeon? Yuri asked curiously
Yeah the male nodded slowly
Yuris face grew into a smile
Nice to meet you Taeyeons brother. Im a friend of Taeyeons friend if that made sense. Kwon
Yuri Yuri questioned her own question
A friend of Tiffanys. Its nice to meet you. Im Taeyeons older brother Ji Woong Kim Ji Woong
smiled warmly as he shook Yuris hand
Taeyeons still around here? I thought she was visiting the family Yuri asked curiously
Ji Woong chuckled
She said she wanted to stay close to here, she we rented an apartment for a week here. Taeyeon
has just gone home for a while. Hayeon is a little disheartened by that he said as nodded his head
to Hayeon
Yuri looked down to see Hayeon throwing the tissue away into a nearby bin and walking back with a
stern look on her face
Hayeon. How about we go visit a friend of your unnie instead? Im sure you will like her Yuri
suggested
Hayeon looked up at Yuri confusingly before she walked over to Ji Woongs side and tugged on his
hand
Oppa this unnie is breaking all the rules Taeyeon unnie set. The girl whined
Yuri was taken aback at the girls bluntness
Dont worry Hayeon. Ill be coming with you Ji Woong chuckled
So you guys want to visit Tiffany? Yuri asked
Ji Woong nodded as he bent down to pick up Hayeon

We need to thank her for looking after our sister. Isnt that right Hayeon
Hayeon nodded furiously
Unnie said we must always thank others for looking after our family she said proudly
Yuris heart melted at the girls innocence

Tiffany. I brought something extra Yuri called out as she entered the room
Tiffany was on her bed making some terrible paper cranes
Ew. Whats that? Yuri said with disgust as she pointed at the cranes
Theyre cranes, what else? Tiffany said offensively
Yuri just rolled her eyes
I brought a few visitors Yuri smiled as she turned around
Ji Woong and Hayeon walked in
Youre Taeyeons brother Tiffany immediately gasped
Ji Woong chuckled
And her younger sister, Hayeon he said as he shifted Hayeons weight
Annyeonghaesayo Hayeon greeted formally
Tiffanys heart melted
Shes so adorable Tiffany squealed
Hayeon moved back, a little scared of Tiffanys reaction.
Hayeon-ah. Do you want to come sit with unnie? Tiffany offered as she patted the bed beside her
Hayeon shook her head
Yuri burst out into laughter when Tiffanys face dropped into a pout
Hayeon, Tiffany-shi is Taeyeons friend. I think you should be nicer to her Ji Woong whispered to
Hayeon
Hayeon shook her head
She spent more time with Unnie than me she said stubbornly

Tiffany was taken aback


Hayeon rarely sees Taeyeon She doesnt really like anyone whos friends with her Ji Woong said
apologetically
Tiffany just nodded and smiled sweetly
Hayeon. Can unnie talk to you for a while? Tiffany said calmly
Hayeon shook her head
Ive got a few lollies from Taeyeon. Do you want some? Tiffany tried to bribe
Hayeon curiously turned her head towards Tiffany
Tiffany patted the seat beside her and held out her hand which contained lollies
Hayeon slowly went over to Tiffanys side and sat stiffly
Hayeon why dont you like Taeyeons friends? Tiffany asked slowly
Hayeon just popped a lolly into her mouth and remained silent
Its rude to ignore others Ji Woong warned
Hayeon sighed
Because you get to see unnie more than I do. Unnnie probably likes you more too All unnie does
is tell me what to do and what not to do Hayeon pouted
Tiffany giggled
Thats not true. Taeyeon loves you a lot. I know it because she talks about you. As she just wants
you to grow up as a mature and respectable woman Tiffany explained
Hayeon still held her stubborn pout
Here. How about I give you this. As a present so I can become your friend Tiffany suggested as she
took her Totoro bear and showed it to Hayeon
Tiffany could see Hayeons eyes light up brightly when she saw the plush toy but was trying hard to
keep a hard attitude up
Tiffany smiled brightly as she put it into her hands
What do you say Hayeon? Ji Woong urged
Thank you Tiffany unnie Hayeon said nervously
Tiffany gave a squeal as she threw her arms around Hayeon and hugged her
Its like a mini Tae Yuri chuckled

Tiffany nodded
Oh, by the way. Taeyeon is coming back tomorrow right? Tiffany turned her attention to Ji Woong
Ji Woong nodded
Our family needs to get back to the States soon. Ji Woong shrugged
Hayeon let out a huff
Just then Ji Woongs phone rang
Yeobosayo? Oh Taeyeon. Yes well be coming back right now? Huh? Ice cream? Ara ara Ji Woong
rolled his eyes
Hayeon-ah. Your unnie wants to play a game with you and she also wants some ice cream. Want to
buy it for her? Ji Woong said teasingly
Hayeon nodded furiously as she got off her bed and ran into Ji Woongs arms
Thank you Tiffany. For looking after my dongsaeng Ji Woong bowed formally
Its okay really said Tiffany as she waved her hands defensively
They sure do look like their sister Yuri sighed
Tiffany giggled
A male Taeyeon, the normal Taeyeon and mini Taeyeon. A whole collection Yuri chuckled
Oh did you get it? Tiffany quickly changed the subject
Yuri shook her head
Nope she said tiredly
Tiffanys jaw dropped
Yuri then smirked at Tiffany as she pulled the bear form behind her
Of course I got it Yuri reassured
Tiffany let out a sigh of relief as she held the bear
So youre little date is tomorrow right? Yuri asked curiously
Tiffany nodded
Tomorrow Tiffany squealed
Tomorrow, 9th of March
Taeyeons birthday

Final Chapter:
3:30pm
Three thirty Tiffany whispered to herself
It was finally the day which Taeyeon returns from her visit from her family. Tiffany had been up since
early morning waiting for Taeyeons return
Are you waiting for something? Yuri chuckled from beside Tiffany
Tiffany shot a glare at Yuri. All day Yuri had been teasing Tiffany and it was starting to get on her
nerves
Why dont you call her? Yuri suggested as she handed Tiffany the phone
Tiffany held the phone within her hands and hesitated
Ive tried. I keep getting to her parents or brother though Tiffany sighed
Why dont you ask them where she is then?
Tiffany shook her head
Asking a family when their daughter returns to the hospital isnt exactly polite you know Tiffany
gave Yuri a sceptical look
Yuri just shrugged
Well. I have to go. My auntie needs me to baby sit her daughter for tonight. Are you sure youre
okay? Yuri said worriedly as she got up from her seat
Tiffany just nodded confidently
Taeyeon should be here soon anyway Tiffany reassured
Yuri just nodded as she got her bag and walked over to Tiffany
Ill visit the day after tomorrow Yuri said casually as she rustled Tiffanys hair and walked out
Thanks Yuri Tiffany smiled to herself
As Yuri walked out and closed the door she bumped into one of the nurses, dropping her phone onto
the floor
Oh sorry Yuri apologized
Its okay the nurse just smiled warmly and proceeded with her job
Yuri bent over to pick up her phone and used the reflection to fix her hair
As she was looking into the reflection she saw a girl creeping around the hallways behind her. The
girl looked oddly familiar to her but she couldnt quite see through the phone.

Yuri then decided to turn around instead of looking into the reflection of her phone all the time.
Her eyes popped wide open when she saw who it was
*Taeyeon?!* Yuri thought to herself as she squinted
It was indeed Taeyeon. She was stuck to the side of the wall as though she was looking out for
something.
*I wonder what shes up to* Yuri thought to herself curiously
Taeyeon then decided to move and creep forward quickly. Yuri stood there as she watched Taeyeon
snoop closer and closer to her
Taeyeon quickly ducked in the hallway not too far from Tiffanys room and peered her head to the
side, checking her surroundings
Yuri smiled as she opening her mouth to greet Taeyeon
Tae
Taeyeon! Get back this instant! a voice cut her off
Yuris mouth was still left half open as she turned around to see interrupted her. As she did a nurse
walked straight pass her and towards Taeyeon
Uh oh. Jessica! Taeyeon exclaimed as she quickly made a dash down the hallway
The nurse quickly picked up her pace and caught up with Taeyeon easily, catching her by the ear
You can visit her later. Go back to your room now the nurse said sternly
Yuri watched as the nurse dragged Taeyeon down the hallway and made a right turn, disappearing
from sight
She blinked a few times, trying to make sense of what just happened in front of her
She then just shrugged it off and made her way to the exit
*Taeyeon probably forgot to do something* Yuri thought optimistically to herself

Where are you Taeyeon? Tiffany said impatiently to herself as she checked the time
It was almost nine oclock at night and Tiffany still had nothing from Taeyeon
With each passing minute Tiffany was getting more and more impatient

Tiffany sighed as she took out her phone and dialled Taeyeons father
Ring ring
Ring ring
You call cannot be answered right.
Tiffany hung up before the voicemail could finish and let out a frustrated sigh
One week, promise Taeyeons words played in Tiffanys mind
*Shell be here soon* Tiffany tried to encourage herself
She looked up from her bed and onto the table where she had left Taeyeons diary. Tiffany slowly
took the blankets off herself and walked to the table. She picked up the small diary again and flicked
towards the back
Life can be unfair sometimes. Whenever I look out the window I always feel a sense of jealousy run
through me as I watch the people go about their lives. Experiencing bad days at work, having fun
with their family and doing what the normal people do. I sometimes wonder whether Id be able to
have a family of my own one day. To be able to have a child to care for, experience the hardship my
mother has been through. Dear diary, why did it have to be me?
Tiffany paused at the end of the page for a while
She then turned to the next page rather than skip pages
I wonder what its like being a star. Having your own light and not having to rely on others to shine. I
hope one day to be able to shine by myself for others to admire me rather than pity me. I wish to
shine brightly for my first love. I dont want to be looked down upon by her
*Her?!* Tiffanys eyes popped open at the word
Dear diary, Ill be leaving to see my family for a week. Im really nervous to see them again. Ive
been missing for the most part of their lives, Hayeons mostly. I really dont want to make the family
mood drop down because Im there. Ji Woong Oppa is still the same though. Just because he has the
tall genes doesnt mean he should rub it in. Well I have to leave now. Please let Tiffany be well
after the operation. I will miss her very much
** Tiffanys hands remained still
She let out a sigh of confusion as she slowly put the diary back down. As she did the back of the diary
was opened
Dear diary, I cant bring myself to confess to her. I really dont want to ruin the friendship that we
have. So instead, Im taking the easy way out. I will confess through you my dear diary. I know you
probably already know this, but I love Tiffany Hwang. I know I shouldnt but I cant help myself. Every
second I spend with her is like a life time in heaven. I dont want to ruin our friendship so I will
forever keep it to myself. My heart will still wait for hers, I shall wait until I cant wait anymore.

When Tiffany can return my feelings for her, I shall be content. I will never wish for anything more.
Forever Wishing Upon a Star Saranghae Tiffany Hwang
Tiffanys hand shook as the diary slipped out of her hands
She slowly back away from the table and onto her own bed again. Shock and confusion was running
through her mind.
Taeyeon liked HER
Although Taeyeon had not directly confessed to her, her heart was starting to beat faster
*This cant be were just friends* Tiffany thought in disbelief
I will forever keep it to myself
*Whats happening?* Tiffany held her head as it began to throb
You made me wait too long The dream came back to Tiffany
Tiffany shook her head
Forever Wishing Upon a Star Saranghae Tiffany Hwang
Tears began to flow from Tiffanys eyes. She didnt know what was happening to her. Her head was
starting to have a million thoughts at once, her heart was beating faster and faster the more she
thought and her body was starting to go limp
*Taeyeon is just a friend just a friend*
Tiffany then felt something press against her lips. She blinked a few times as she saw Taeyeon in
front of her, kissing her lips
As Tiffany moved her hand towards he lip the image disappeared, it was just a memory. She grazed
her hand against her lips, the side of it was warmer compared to the rest.
Love you Taeyeon whispered
If you keep saying that I might actually believe you one day Tiffany complained
Saranghae Taeyeon repeated
Her tears began to dry up as more memories of Taeyeon replayed
Still confused, Tiffany took out her phone and dialled Yuri
Hello? Yuri answered on the second ring
Y-Yuri Tiffanys voice quivered
Tiffany? Are you okay? Whats wrong? Yuri said with concern
Tiffany took a deep breath to calm herself down. What did you mean by something interesting in
Taeyeons diary? Tiffany asked hesitantly

Yuri fell silent. You read it? she asked unsurely


Y-Yeah Tiffany stuttered
And? Yuri urged on How do you feel?
Tiffany didnt know how to describe what she was feeling. Im confused Yuri Memories of me
and Taeyeon keep replaying My heart is beating faster than normal and my body feels limp
Tiffany explained slowly
Ill ask this then. Do you like the idea of Taeyeon liking you? Yuri said calmly
I-I dont know Tiffany answered hesitantly
Okay forget about that for a moment then. How do you feel about Taeyeon? Yuri changed the
question
I-I dont know
Not as in how you like her. What do you think about her? Yuri tried her best to remain calm
Shes really kind caring funny amazing Tiffany listed slowly. She also is cute, smart and has
a smile that could melt anyones resolve Tiffany said with a little more confidence
And in the past few days how did you feel when Taeyeon wasnt there with you? Yuri chuckled
Tiffany paused
Ill answer that for you. You were a nervous wreck! All you ever did was count the minutes until the
day came. All of today you kept checking your watch. I even threw a bug on your bed and you didnt
notice Yuri said sarcastically
Tiffany bit her lower lip
So? How do you feel about her now that youve thought through it? Yuri calmed herself down
Tiffany sighed
Dont answer me. Answer it for yourself Yuri quickly intruded
Yeah Tiffany said grimly
Call me when youve made your decision. I need to tell you something said Yuri before she hung
up
Tiffany brought her knees up to her chest as she placed the phone beside her
*How do I feel?* Tiffany sighed

Ring ring
Ring ring
Hello? Yuri answered tiredly
Y-Yuri I-I I think I like Taeyeon Tiffany whispered through the phone
Yuri looked up at her watch
3:14am
You called me this early to tell me that? Yuri said annoyingly
You told me to think about it and call you when I made up my mind Tiffany whined
Oh So you made up your mind? Yuri said groggily
Y-Yeah I think I like Taeyeon Tiffany said barely audibly
Yuri chuckled tiredly Go tell her then
Tiffany paused She still hasnt come
Huh?!
Taeyeon isnt back yet Tiffany said slowly
Yuri rubbed her eyes and sat up straight
But I saw her this afternoon One of the nurses took her down the hallway Jessica I think was her
name
What? Tiffany said confusingly
This afternoon I saw Taeyeon creeping back. But one of the nurses pulled her back. I was sure shed
be there by now Yuri was starting to feel more awake
Yuri stop teasing Taeyeon nor has anyone entered this room ever since you left Tiffany said
seriously
I was sure of it. The nurse even called Taeyeons name She was taken to the right wing of the
hospital Yuris voice hit an awkward high note
Yuri tell me youre joking Tiffanys voice began to quiver
Im being serious. Down towards the left of your room until you hit the end window and then turn
right The nurse and Taeyeon walked down that way Yuri started to become worried. Shes
probably still at the reception place
Yuri the right wing doesnt have reception Tiffanys voice was now very unstable

Then
Tiffany quickly hung up the phone before Yuri could finish
*Its the critical ward* Tiffany panicked as she quickly got out of the room and rushed down the
hall
Ooof Tiffany exclaimed as she bumped into one of the nurses
Sooyoung?! Tiffany quickly said when she saw the person she bumped into
Oh hi Tiffany. What are you doing around here? Sooyoung asked curiously
Tiffany put her hands on Sooyoungs shoulders and gripped onto them
Taeyeons in there isnt she?! Tiffany accused
I beg your pardon? Sooyoung said confusingly
Taeyeon Shes in the critical ward Tiffany repeated
What?! Seriously Tiffany go back and rest. I dont know what youre talking about Sooyoung
frowned
I do. A voice called from behind
Sooyoung and Tiffany turned to see Jessica standing with her arms crossed behind them
Tiffany go back to your room Jessica said sternly
Tiffany let go of Sooyoungs shoulders and went to Jessica
Jessica Why is Taeyeon in there? Tiffany asked hurriedly
Sooyoung rubbed her sore shoulders as she watched Jessicas reaction
Taeyeon is back?! Sooyoung said in surprise
Jessica turned her cold gaze to Sooyoung and nodded grimly
She came back yesterday Jessica answered slowly
Tiffany grabbed Jessicas hands tightly
Why is she in there? Tiffany begged
Sooyoung used her hand to rub her forehead as she let out a sigh
Is she okay? Sooyoung asked
Jessica remained stiff
Whats going on? Why is Taeyeon in the critical ward? Tiffany raised her voice

Sooyoung gave Tiffany an apologetic look


Taeyeon had been informed a month ago that she should be transferred to the critical ward to
maintain her health She refused to move and now is facing the consequences Jessica said
bluntly
Youre lying Tiffany said slowly
Jessica pursed her lips together
No one is allowed in the critical ward without permission. Im afraid you will have to go back to
your room Jessica said coldly
Tiffany shook her head stubbornly as she gripped tighter onto Jessicas hands
How is she? Tiffanys voice choked
But isnt today Sooyoung interrupted
Jessica nodded slowly
Were trying out best Jessica sighed
Tiffany felt the sides of her eyes get wetter
But Yuri saw her this afternoon. She was fine this afternoon Tiffany said desperately
Its all an act Tiffany. Every day she was in pain. She would bite her tongue until it bled to hold in
her pain. She would sneak out every once in a while to get help from us. She has been doing this
ever since you came Jessica shot Tiffany a glare
Ease up Jessica Sooyoung tried to calm her down
Tiffanys knees gave way and she fell to the floor
Please just let me see her Tiffany begged
Tiffany Jessica sighed
Sooyoung bent down to comfort Tiffany
I dont think you would want to see her right now Sooyoung whispered
Tiffany used her hands to cover her eyes as her tears started flowing faster
Jessicas heart ached at the sight of the broken down Tiffany
You have fifteen minutes Jessica grumbled as she walked pass the two
Tiffany raised her head up and stared at Sooyoung
Ill bring you to her Sooyoung sighed as she helped Tiffany up

Beep
Beep
Beep
Taeyeon? Tiffany whispered through the door
Ill knock when your fifteen minutes if up Sooyoung said slowly before she walked off
Tiffany took a deep breath to prepare herself
Taeyeon? Tiffany called out again
Nothing couldve prepared Tiffany for the sight she saw. Taeyeon had a full oxygen mask on and had
needles coming from both her arms. The heart monitor was attached to a cord that was latched
onto Taeyeons finger
Tiffany covered her mouth and gasped as she saw the figure in the dimly lit room.
Tiffany? Taeyeons voice croaked
Tiffanys heart shattered into pieces
Tiffany, with her hand still covering her mouth, walked up closer to Taeyeon
Tiffany Im sorry I couldnt make it Taeyeon said slowly
Tiffany just shook her head slowly, still not believing what she was seeing
Im sorry you had to see me like this Taeyeon chuckled hoarsely
Tiffany felt another tear roll down her face
Taeyeon sat up and took the heart monitor clip off her finger
Sun rise is coming soon Taeyeon smiled weakly
Tiffany quickly took her arms down and stopped Taeyeon from taking the needles off her arm
What do you think youre doing?! Tiffany said sternly
Going to see the sunrise Taeyeon answered innocently
Tiffany quickly took the clip and put it back on Taeyeons finger
In your condition!? Tiffany scolded
Taeyeon chuckled as she took the clip off again

You cant break your promise Tiffany You promised Taeyeon tilted her head to the side and held
up her pinky
I cant take you like this Tiffany growled as she held the clip in her hand
Before she could put it back on Taeyeons finger, Taeyeon ripped the needles out of her arm
aggressively
You promised Tiffany Taeyeons voice sounded hurt. Tiffany wasnt sure whether it was from the
needles or not
Tiffany looked at Taeyeons eyes
The onyx orbs were filled with sincerity and hope.
Once the sun rises I will take whatever treatment there is. We will only be gone for two hours max
Taeyeon pleaded as she held onto Tiffanys arm. Please Tiffany
Tiffany watched as she saw the sides of Taeyeons eyes water
If you wont come with me, Ill go by myself Taeyeon said sternly as she got off the bed
Tiffany quickly grabbed onto Taeyeons arm
Two hours maximum? Tiffany asked unsurely
Taeyeon smiled
Max Taeyeon answered confidently
Tiffany sighed
Thank you Tiffany Taeyeon said sincerely
Are you okay to sneak down by yourself? I need to get something Tiffany said worriedly
Taeyeon nodded
Ill meet you down there Taeyeon smiled as she reached up to her mask

Ding~

The elevator door opened and Tiffany slowly walked out of it onto the ground floor. The hospital was
still empty at this stage so she was able to walk out easily.
As she walked out the hospital a figure beside her jumped on her
Took you long enough Taeyeon chuckled
Tiffany looked at Taeyeon worriedly. She then bent down in front of Taeyeon
Get on. Ill take you there Tiffany said sternly
Taeyeons eyes opened as she poked Tiffanys back
I can walk by myself Taeyeon said, feeling a little offended
Part of my birthday gift to you. Now hurry before we miss it Tiffany said sternly
*I dont want you running before me* Tiffany thought of her dream
Not long though, she felt something on her back.
Am I heavy? Taeyeon asked cautiously
Tiffany shook her head
Youre really light Tiffany said as she stood up and started walking down the street
Liar Taeyeon chuckled
Tiffany just shrugged as she walked easily along the sidewalk
Taeyeon smiled as she rested her head onto Tiffanys shoulders

Tiffany reached the bottom of a hill and looked up. Their destination was just over this hill.
I can walk by myself now Taeyeon reassured as she hopped off Tiffanys shoulders
Tiffanys heart clenched as Taeyeon started walking before her. She quickly grabbed onto her hand
Dont go too far without me Tiffany said quickly
Taeyeon just flashed Tiffany a smile and a nod as she stepped back and linked their arms
Well tackle this hill together then Taeyeon beamed as she started marching Tiffany up the hill

As the two came down the hill they approached their destination The beach
Taeyeon climb on again Tiffany said as she bent over again

Taeyeon was feeling a little out of breath and so listened to Tiffanys order and climbed back onto
Tiffany
Thank you Taeyeon said again
Tiffany just smiled at the arms secured around her neck and the legs around her waist. She proudly
walked down to the beach and reached the wall
From far away there was a glimmer of sunlight
From behind Taeyeon felt her chest tighten in pain. Her grip around Tiffanys neck tightened but she
tried to make in as unnoticeable as she could.
Tiffany Taeyeon murmured
Tiffany turned her head around to face Taeyeon. Taeyeon pulled off a smile and kissed her cheek
Thank you for being my star whispered Taeyeon
Tiffany just chuckled
Save that for later. Focus on the sun rise now Tiffany chuckled as she shifted Taeyeons weight
Taeyeon just smiled as a tear drop fell from the side of her eye. She nuzzled her head in closer with
Tiffanys.
The sun slowly began to rise. Its brightness slowly lighting up their surroundings and bringing
warmth to the world again.
Isnt it beautiful? Tiffany said in awe
Taeyeon just nodded as her grip around Tiffanys neck tightened
Tiffany Thank you for this opportunity. Thank you for being there in my time of need. Thank you
for giving me hope in this life. Thank you Tiffany for being who you are, the wonderful, cheerful and
talented girl who always made me happy each and every day Taeyeon whispered in Tiffanys ear
Why are you saying this now Taeyeon? Save it for later when were at a safer location Tiffany
chuckled as she shifted Taeyeons weight again
Taeyeon just shook her head
Being able to see the sunrise with you Tiffany That was all I wanted from the time I met you. Im
really thankful that youve taken me here Taeyeons voice grew softer
Taeyeon? What are saying? Tiffany felt Taeyeons grip on her loosen
Tiffany Truth is I was never meant to be here today If you werent there with me I wouldnt
be here today Taeyeons voice quivered.
Taeyeon-ah? Tiffany turned her head around to see tears coming from Taeyeons eyes

Tiffany Taeyeon whined. It hurts Tiffany Not just physically I dont want to Tiffany I dont
want to Taeyeon sobbed as she put her forehead on Tiffanys shoulder
Stop scaring me Taeyeon Its not funny Tiffany tried to lighten to mood with a laugh, but it
ended up being a mangled sigh
Tiffany I dont want too It hurts Tiffany it hurts Taeyeons grip was now completely loose
Tiffany quickly bent forward to prevent her from falling
Taeyeon! Tiffany exclaimed
Taeyeons hands crept around her waist and hugged her
Tiffany quickly set Taeyeon down slowly. She turned around to face a painful expression on
Taeyeons face. Taeyeon was double bent as she clutched her chest
Taeyeon took a deep breath as she gave Tiffany a weak smile
You still havent wished me a happy birthday yet Taeyeon chuckled
Tiffany felt something wet on the side of her cheeks. Her lips started to tremble as she watched the
girl in front of her
You have to wish me a happy birthday Tiffany. Its my birthday Taeyeon tried to sound optimistic
Tiffany quickly dug into her pockets and pulled out the bracelet. She didnt take the bear with her
since she thought it was too much of a hassle.
H-Happy birthday Taeyeon Tiffanys voice stuttered as she handed Taeyeon the bracelet
Taeyeons smile grew, but not by a lot, as she admired the bracelet
From me, Tiffany pointed to her heart, To you Tiffany then pointed at Taeyeons
Taeyeon pursed her lips together as even more tears started to fall
Tiffany I dont want to Taeyeon was now sobbing
Tiffany quickly turned around and pulled Taeyeon over her shoulders
Keep the bracelet in your hands. Ill put it on you once we get back. Promise me youll be okay till
then Tiffany said desperately as she started walking quickly back to the hospital
Taeyeon tightened her grip as best as she could as her chest started throbbing more and more.
As they reached the hill Tiffany gave a groan. With each passing second she knew Taeyeon was in
more and more pain. So after taking a few deep breaths she quickly ran up the hill. Taking another
few deep breaths she ran back down again.
Ice cream. Get your ice cream

Tiffany turned her head to see the exact same ice cream parlour in her dreams in the exact same
place.
Tiffany Im sorry Taeyeon sobbed
Tiffany picked up her pace and started jogging. No cars were driving at that time and she regretted
taking Taeyeon out so much during that time.
Taeyeon Everything is going to be okay I promise Tiffany said quickly
Tiffany Taeyeons voice was faint
Tell me later Tiffany quickly interrupted as she leaned over so Taeyeon wouldnt fall off
Tiffany I cant Tiffany heard her gasp
Tiffanys vision began to blur as she started to jog. Blinking to clear the water in her eyes
Taeyeons grip around Tiffanys waist suddenly tightened
Sa rang hae Taeyeon whispered
Taeyeon-ah. I love you too. Please hang on Tiffany pleaded
Tiffany stopped in her tracks when she felt Taeyeons grip completely let go, the bracelet in her hand
dropping to the floor and breaking.

From the window sill of Tiffanys room, the second flower began to bloom
As the second was in full bloom, the second one was withering away, swaying with the breeze of the
fan before finally, giving way and falling to the soil of the pot

Taeyeon-ah Tiffany felt Taeyeons body go limp


Taeyeon Tiffany began to break out into a full cry

3 months later

Dear Taeyeon,
Its the 9th of June today. Three months after your birthday.
Ive got good news. Doctors are finally letting me out of the hospital. They said that I needed to stay
a lot longer because I was suffering from stress and depression.
Jessica and Sooyoung were the ones treating me. They seemed just as sad as I am. They are a lot
happier now though. Sooyoung confessed to Jessica not long ago. The reaction from Jessica was
hilarious.
Hayeon really misses you Tae. For two months straight she wouldnt do anything that reminded her
of you. Shes okay now though. She has Yuri to look after her.
Oh yes! I forgot to mention. Yuri is dating your brother. Isnt that exciting?
Shes already moving to the states to be with your brother.
So how have you been Taeyeon?
Are you having fun teasing all the people up there?
Im just writing you this letter to let you know that I still miss you.
I still havent forgiven you for lying to me that day. I dont think I ever will.
I managed to fix your bracelet as well I wear it on my left hand each day now.
Do you wonder why?
That day on your birthday, you left me without saying good bye.
It was also the day that I was going to confess to you.
It was a rushed confession, but I did confess.
However I dont know whether you heard me or not I get worried that you might have felt lonely
waiting for my heart.
I just wanted you to know Tae
I love you.
Every day I will be saying that to you.
Every day I will say that to you so that every day you will know how I feel.
Missing You Taeyeon
xoxo Tiffany Hwang

Tiffany closed the small diary which belonged to Taeyeon.

She let out a sigh as she kissed the cover of the book and put it into a box. Tiffany the closed the box,
which contained Taeyeons wishes, diary, pens and cranes, and put it back into the small hole in a
tree. The tree was right beside the beach and the box, which was in the tree, was facing the morning
sunrise
I love you Kim Taeyeon Tiffany whispered as she walked from the box, leaving it until the next day
came

Bonus Chapter:
Sunrise was due in half an hour
Tiffany was calmly walking along the beach with her hands in her pockets as the cold wind blew
For the past year Tiffany had been walking up and down the same beach. She never got sick of it as
she had a reason to visit everyday
From the side of her eye she could see the suns rays slowly lighting up the sky. She was approaching
her destination as the sun came into view
The old tree which was lonesome by itself on the side of the beach, facing the morning sunrise each
day, started to light up slowly. Tiffany reached out to the box embedded into its trunk and opened it.
Over a year ago it only contained a few things and only one diary.
Now it was over filling with multiple diaries, filled with Tiffanys messages
She pulled out the newest diary and pen as she started scribbling her daily note into it
To: Taeyeon
Annyeong Taetoro. Its me again.
You must be kind of tired from hearing from me each day. I wonder if youre still reading these
messages sometimes
Ive got some news for you today. Yuri and your brother are getting married.
Shocking I know.
Theyre planning to have their wedding in three months. They seem overly excited about it even if it
is still far off.
Hayeon has made a new friend at her school. His name is Kyungsan.
Yes, I mean he.
He is really adorable though. He protected your sister from a small ant during the playground. He
even gave Hayeon the ice cream his mother had bought him.
Just watching them makes you feel all soft inside
I know you could probably see all this happening But I just wanted to make sure you stay informed
Love you Tae
xoxo Tiffany

Tiffany closed the book again and put it into the box before closing the lid once again.
She took a deep sigh as she faced the rising sun and closed her eyes
Saranghae Taeyeon Tiffany recited her words which came out almost like a reflex now.
She pulled out her left wrist to look at the bracelet that she had gotten for Taeyeon
If only I could see you one last time Tiffany whispered with a disappointed sigh
As her hand was still held up she saw something stumbling in the background

Tiffany lowered her hand and squinted towards the direction of the unidentified object that was
stumbling on the beach
She took a step closer when suddenly the figure collapsed on to the floor
Oh my god Tiffany exclaimed as she started running to the person who had collapsed
The wave washed up against the unconscious persons body. Moving it slightly towards the sea again
Tiffany quickly bent over towards the limp body and grabbed onto the arm and threw it over her
shoulder as she carried the person back to a safer place.
Dj vu hit Tiffany as she remembered Taeyeons last birthday.
She decided to shake that memory as she place the unconscious body down near the tree. As she
pulled the arm down and moved back she gasped.
The unconscious person was a girl.
Not just any girl.
But a girl who looked exactly like Taeyeon
Tiffany froze up as she took a good look at the girl.
The girl then started leaning over and toppling over. Tiffany quickly caught the girl before she could
land herself into the ground again. The girls cheeks were as cold as ice when they brushed against
Tiffanys hand.
Disregarding her thoughts Tiffany took off her extra coat and wrapped it around the girl before
pulling her arms around her neck, pulling the girl onto her back
Lets get you cleaned up Tiffany grunted as she started marching back up the beach
Tiffany slowly approached her home which she had just recently bought with the purpose of it being
right beside the beach
As Tiffany approached the door she felt around her pockets to find her keys. As she looked to the
left her lips lightly brushed against the girls cheek. Tiffany couldnt help but jump a little with shock,
thinking that she saw Taeyeon again
Grandma grandpa the girl mumbled slightly
Tiffany just shook her head and took out her key as she put it into the door. She opened the door
and walked in to slowly put the unconscious girl down onto the couch nearest to her. She then went
off into the kitchen to get a wet cloth and put it on the girls forehead
Tiffany paused as her eyes slowly trailed down. The girl was still wet from the salt water. Worried
that she might catch a cold, Tiffany went to find some clothes that would fit the girl. As she came out
of her room with the spare clothes and stood in front of the girl, she paused.

Errm Tiffany whispered as she wondered how she was going to change the girl without being
embarrassed
*Shes a girl just like you. Dont worry. No one will ever know* Tiffany encouraged herself as she
took a few deep breaths
Slowly Tiffany reached her hand out towards the girl, carefully taking the clothes off, one by one.
She tried her best not to look while changing her but she was worried that her hands mightve
touched some places which wouldve made the situation even more awkward. After managing to
strip the girl, Tiffany carefully tried to put the clothes back on, hoping that the girl wouldnt have
regained her consciousness during the short period of time.
Finally Tiffany managed to take the girls out of her clothes and into new dry ones. She picked up the
wet clothes and started heading to the laundry to put it away when she noticed something familiar
about the clothes.
She held the clothes up to get a good look at them. They were definitely familiar but she could not
remember where she saw them. Shrugging off the idea she proceeded to putting it into the washing
machine, taking anything that might be still working from the pockets. As she dug her hand in, she
felt something plastic inside. Thinking that it mightve been important she pulled it out, slowly
revealing what seemed to be a plastic cover.
Putting the clothes down into the machine she pressed a few buttons and put a bit of detergent in
before turning to the small plastic thing in her hand. She took a closer look to see some colour inside
the plastic.
I should probably dry it out Tiffany said to herself as she tried to take the object out of the plastic
cover
She gasped as the object was removed
Luckily the object was not damaged by the salt water and remained relatively dry. What made
Tiffany gasp was what the object was.
It was a bleeding hearts flower.
She slowly put the plastic cover beside her as she laid the flower into the palm of her hand. Tiffany
brought it up closer to her face as she examined it closer. It was indeed a bleeding hearts flower,
similar to the one she and Taeyeon had been given during the festival
*Brings back memories* Tiffany chuckled as she put it back into the plastic cover again.
Grandma! a sudden yell came from the lounge
Tiffany quickly put the flower and the plastic cover into her pocket as she ran to see what was going
on. As she ran into the lounge room she saw that the girl was conscious again, sitting there with a
scared look on her face as she was tugging onto the collar of her shirt.
The girl looked up slowly to face Tiffany; her face was struck with fear as she quickly backed up to
the side of the couch.

Calm down Tiffany reassured as she slowly lifted up her hands


The girl crawled up into a ball in the corner of the couch as she stared at Tiffany warily
Im not a bad person. You fell unconscious near the beach so I took you back to my place. No need
to worry Tiffany said slowly as she took a step closer
D-Dont come any closer the girl stuttered as she held her arm at Tiffany
Tiffany immediately stopped and stood there carefully. The girl seemed to relax a little to see Tiffany
a safe distance away from her. Suddenly she brought her hand up to her head as it started to throb
in pain.
Tiffany slowly walked up to the table in front of the couch and nudged the packet of painkillers and a
cup of water closer towards the girl
Take these Tiffany offered as she took a step back again
The girl slowly looked up at the pills on the table but shook her head firmly, rejecting Tiffanys offer.
Tiffany nodded, understanding that she probably didnt trust her completely yet.
I will make you some food to eat. Feel free to wonder around Tiffany patted her knees as she got
up and headed for the kitchen again
The girl sat there. Her head still throbbing.
She couldnt remember anything. Who she was, where she was, why she was here and what was she
doing there.
All that she remembered was the image of her grandmother and grandfather slowly disappearing.
Who am I? She whispered to herself as she held her head, trying to remember

Tiffany was in the kitchen preparing the girl some food. It was when she was finished and about to
call the girl that she realised that she did not know who the girl was. She decided then to bring the
food out to her and set it on the table in front of the curled up girl.
I made you some food. Please at least eat something. I swear Im not going to hurt you Tiffany
beckoned as she pushed the tray across the table
The girl looked up from her hands and at the food. Her stomach growled loudly.
Her cheeks flushed a bright red as Tiffany giggled at the girls embarrassment.
Slowly she reached her hand out to grab the bowl of porridge and the spoon next to it. One by one
she held each spoonful to her mouth, swallowing down and filling up her stomach
Tiffany rested her elbow against the table and her cheek against her palm as she smiled at the girl.
By the way, I didnt catch your name Tiffany suddenly said

The girl paused as she slowly put the spoon down again. Swallowing the last remains in her mouth as
she slowly looked up at Tiffany
Tiffany turned her head to the side expectantly
I I dont know the girl uttered slowly
Tiffany blinked a few times with confusion
Its okay if you dont want me to know. I just want something to call you by Tiffany gave a warming
smile
The girl shook her head
I Really dont know I dont remember she repeated
Oh Tiffany said slowly, realising the dilemma she was in
The girl slowly put the bowl down again and sighed
Well worry about that later. How about you get cleaned up? You must be sticky from all that salt
water. I only changed your clothes sorry about that. Tiffany let out an awkward smile
The girl just nodded shyly
Come. Ill show you to the bathroom. Ill get some new clothes for you Tiffany offered as she held
out her hand
The girl reluctantly reached her hand out to grab Tiffanys as she was led into the house and into the
bathroom.
Ill leave your clothes here. Make yourself comfortable Tiffany reassured
Sorry for the trouble the girl apologised
Tiffany just smiled and shook her head
No trouble at all. You seem a lot like my friend so it doesnt matter
The girl just nodded shyly as she grasped the collar of her shirt
Okay. Ill leave you to it Tiffany gave a smile before she exited
*Shes nice* the girl thought to herself with a smile

While the girl was still showering, Tiffany was looking at the flower that was found in the girls
pocket
I wonder where she got this Tiffany mumbled to herself as she held the plastic up

The sun through the window started reflecting off her bracelet as she held her arm up. Tiffany
sighed as she brought her hand down again
*A girl who looks like Taeyeon, appears on the beach at sunrise, has no memory of herself and owns
nothing but a bleeding hearts flower and those clothes* Tiffany found the situation a little too
coincidental
A picture then flashed in her mind
Lets tackle this hill together then a bright and strong voice followed the image
Tiffany quickly got out of her seat and ran to the laundry room where the girls clothes were hanging
to dry.
Taeyeons Tiffany uttered as she finally remembered where she saw the clothing before
It was the exact same clothes Taeyeon wore that day. Same jeans, same shirt with the same print on
it
You have to wish me a happy birthday Tiffany. Its my birthday
Tiffany reached her hand out to touch the fabric of the still wet clothes
*Why is it so coincidental?* Tiffany thought to herself as she blinked a few times, feeling the sides of
her eyes stinging
She quickly shook her head determinedly
*You promised you wouldnt cry anymore* Tiffany told herself as she stopped the tears from falling
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! a loud piercing scream ran through the house
Tiffany jumped with surprise as she dropped the plastic cover and flower onto the floor.
What is this?! the girl from the bathroom yelled
Tiffany quickly picked up the flower and ran to the bathroom
She ran in to see the girl in nothing but a towel. She quickly closed her eyes to avoid any
misunderstandings
What is it?! Tiffany said, rather alarmed
M-My r-reflection the girl stuttered as she pointed to the mirror
What about it? Tiffany asked again, keeping her eyes closed
The girls finger shook.
There isnt one the girl uttered with fear

Tiffany raised her eyebrow as she opened one of her eyes. She peered over to the fogged up mirror
before walking towards it. She used her arm to wipe the steam away from the mirror and found
herself in the mirror
What do you Tiffanys voice slowly trailed off as she turned around. She had thought that the girl
had moved or something while she cleaned the mirror, but she was still standing beside her.
mean Tiffany finished off as she slowly turned to the mirror again
Once again there was nothing but just her reflection
I dont have a reflection the girl said slowly
Tiffany blinked a few more times, wiping the mirror a few more times, looking back and forth
between the mirror and the girl. Indeed, the girl seemed to have no reflection.
What am I? the girl whispered as she fell to the floor with disbelief
Tiffany bit her lower lip nervously as she tried to make sense of everything.
Change into your clothes and rest up. Im sure its nothing. Ill research Tiffany changed her tactics
as she handed the girl her spare clothes
The girl just nodded lifelessly as she caught the clothes
Tiffany stood there, expecting the girl to move, but she didnt. Not wanting her to catch a cold
Tiffany carried her by the knees and back into her room.
Ill come back once youve changed and rested up Tiffany whispered as she walked out of her
room
*Theres no mirror in there luckily* Tiffany thought to herself with a sigh before closing the door
behind her
She then went over to her laptop which so happened to be outside her room. She turned it on and
started searching if there may be a reason behind all of this. Tiffany wasnt worried as she knew
there was a logical explanation to everything. Besides there wasnt much that could make her break
down easily. Shes had enough of that before

The loud alarm from Tiffanys phone went off. Slowly peeling her face off of the keyboard Tiffany
reached around for her phone. She opened her eyes tiredly as she checked the time.
4:32am
Tiffany got up and stretched.
Time to visit Tae again Tiffany mumbled as she rubbed her eyes.
Her eyes then fell to her pillow of that night, her laptop.

*OH RIGHT* Tiffany remembered as she ran to her room to see how her guest was going
Tiffany opened the door slightly, not wanting to disturb the girl
She crept in over to the bed and bent over, expecting to see a sleeping girl there. To her surprise she
saw nothing but a bunch of pillows.
What the Tiffany whispered as she pulled the blanket down
Nothing
Tiffany then looked around her room to see her bedroom window open with a sticky note stuck onto
its frame. She walked up slowly and yanked the piece of paper off her window frame
Thank you
Tiffany sighed as she folded the note up neatly and placed it on her table. She honestly wanted to
find that girl again but she didnt even know where to look.
*Ill visit Tae first then look for her* Tiffany noted as she got ready for her daily routine

That morning was particularly chilly that morning


Tiffany had to bring an extra coat on to keep herself warm as she approached the tree that she
visited daily
A few feet away from the tree Tiffany noticed two feet sticking out from behind the tree. They didnt
seem to have any shoes and didnt seem to be wearing very warm clothing
Excuse me but ermm Tiffany said quietly as she approached the person
As the whole body came into view, Tiffany froze.
It was the girl, wearing her own clothes, sleeping beside the tree
Taeyeon Tiffany accidently let her voice trail out of her mouth
The girl stirred as she slowly waked up, shivering at the cold air surrounding her. As she slowly
turned around to face Tiffany she jumped with surprise
Wh-What are you doing here? she stuttered nervously as she pushed herself back away from
Tiffany
Tiffany just gave a soft smile as she took off her extra jumper and handed it to the girl
Its cold. Make sure you wear it Tiffany chuckled as she stood up again

The girl sat there dumbfounded as she watched Tiffany reach towards the box in the tree. Tiffany
took out a book and started writing something in it. As the two were focusing on the book, no one
noticed the wind blowing the box against the tree.
The box slowly tipped over and started falling to the floor, the papers inside falling everywhere. The
box then landed on top of the girls head upside down, letting everything fall out and fly away with
the wind
Oh no! Tiffany exclaimed as she tried to stop the papers from blowing everywhere
But whats done is done. The wishes and letters were all flying away towards the sea
Tiffany sighed as she fell to her knees, dropping the diary and pen
The girl peeked from under the box, using her hand to hold it up as she stared at Tiffany. Tiffany
seemed to be almost in tears as she watched the sun slowly rise with pieces of paper landing on the
ocean
Taeyeon Tiffany whispered sadly
The girl felt her head throb. Thinking that it was from the impact of the box, she brought her hand
up and tried to suppress the pain
Im sorry about the box the girl apologized sincerely as she took the box off with her other hand.
Tiffany just remained silent.
I-Im really, really sorry she apologised again
Tiffany just sighed and shook her head
Its not your fault Maybe I shouldve moved on Tiffany whispered
The girl just looked up sadly at Tiffany. She felt her heart clench at the sight of a broken down girl in
front of her
She suddenly felt something on the top of her head. She reached her hand up to take it down. It was
a sticky note
Forever wishing upon a star,
Please let me see the sunrise on my birthday alongside Tiffany.
That is all I wish for.
Kim Taeyeon xxx

Trying to feel helpful, she put the sticky note at the bottom of the box and picked up a few papers
that were still around them. She managed to keep two cranes, one sticky note and three diary
entries. She then knelt down beside Tiffany again and put the box in Tiffanys lap.
Tiffany just smiled sweetly at the girl as she held the box in her hand.

Feeling as though she hadnt done enough, the girl reached into her pocket and pulled out the
plastic cover with the bleeding hearts flower inside.
I dont remember where I got this But I want you to have it the girl said nervously as she dropped
the flower into the box
Oh no I cant Tiffany quickly defended as she picked it up again
The girl shook her head as she held down Tiffanys arm
I dont know who I am, or where I come from. I dont even have my own reflection the girl
chuckled sympathetically. But if I give this to you, at least there is evidence that I exist
Tiffany looked up at the girls eyes.
The onyx orbs were gleaming sincerely.
Tiffany could have sworn they were the exact same as Taeyeons.
Hearing a clink against her wrist, Tiffany looked down as her eye caught onto the bracelet
She smiled as she put the box beside her and lifted up her wrist to take the bracelet off. The girl
watched curiously as Tiffany held the bracelet in her hand
Here. This will be another indication of your existence Tiffany smiled as she pulled the girls wrist
towards her
The girl shook her head as she tried to pull her arm back, but tiffany remained strong
I cant accept something like that the girl defended
Tiffany just ignored her as she placed the bracelet onto the girl.
As soon as she clicked the clip into place, the girl froze
Tiffany watched curiously as the girls eyes became distant.
Hello? Tiffany enquired as she waved her hands in front of the girl
A single teardrop then dropped from the corner of the girls eye as she blinked.
Omo Tiffany exclaimed as she wiped the tear
The girl just smiled as she held up the bracelet into the sun
Best birthday present ever Tiffany the girl whispered
Tiffany raised her eyebrow
The girl slowly turned her head towards Tiffany and beamed a familiar smile
Taetoro is back the girl smiled

Excuse me? Tiffany felt her heart stop


Im back Tiffany Im back the girl chuckled
Tiffany stared at the girl confusingly
The girl stood up and pulled Tiffany along with her. She then held up her wrist and pointed to it
All thanks to this the girl smiled
Ive been watching you Tiffany. Each day by this tree. She added
Tiffany shook her head
Youre a stalker Tiffany accused
The girll just chuckled
Then how is it I look like Taeyeon, sound like her, wear the same clothes and happened to have the
same flower? the girl asked
Tiffany narrowed her eyes
How did you know Tiffany said warily
The girl just smiled
Tiffany. Its me. Taeyeon
Tiffany shook her head stubbornly
You cant be she shes no longer of this world Tiffany chocked the last few words
The girl chuckled
I WASNT. I read every note you sent me, Yuri is marrying my brother, Hayeon has a new boyfriend
named Kyungsan and Sooyoung and Jessica are going out with each other she announced proudly
Tiffany dropped her guard as her jaw slightly dropped
Tiffany Its really me Every day in heaven I watched over you. It pained me every day to see you
like this. I asked around to make you fall for others but you never seemed to notice them. Then just
yesterday, when I was reading your note, my grandmother came up to me. She tapped my shoulder
slightly and just smiled. The girl started explaining. My grandfather then came along and handed
me a piece of paper. I didnt get to read what it was before I started falling. Somehow I ended up
here.
Youre mad Tiffany uttered
The girl chuckled

I might sound mad, but its true. I had no reflection back then because I was still a hollow shell.
When you gave me the bracelet, everything started rushing back into me. Im pretty sure that now
Id have a reflection
Tiffany took a step closer to the girl. She reached out her hand and touched her cheek.
The girl just smiled
Miss me? she exclaimed
Taeyeons same greeting, every time she came back from her check-ups with Jessica. Exact same
tone and expression
The girl then leaned in and pressed her lips against Tiffanys lips
Tiffany felt tears run down her cheeks
The same warmth and softness that she hadnt experienced for over a year had finally returned.
There wasnt anything else that couldve felt like what she was feeling now.
The girl pulled away and looked at Tiffany expectantly
Wh-where did we usually eat then Tiffany had to make sure. when we first met and under
what circumstances
The girl just smiled confidently
We ate at Jimmys restaurant before it was famous. We met in room 302 of the hospital just a thirty
minute walk from here. Your mother had over reacted about you fainting from dehydration she
answered flawlessly
Is that enough? Water balloon she winked
That was all Tiffany needed
She ran up to the girl and hugged her with all her might
Taeyeon Taeyeon Taeyeon she sobbed in the crook of her neck
The girl just patted Tiffanys back slowly
Im back the girl chuckled as she tightened her hug around Tiffany

In heaven
Aigoo Im going to miss her and elderly man sighed

An elderly woman just giggled at his antics


Shes happier like this anyway. She didnt deserve to visit us early. She had too much going for her.
Besides all she ever did was watch that Tiffany girl anyway the woman shrugged
My Taeyeon the man whined
Oh grow up. Taeyeon is happy now. My granddaughters happiness comes before anyone elses
the woman scolded
The man just sighed with defeat
Oh look. My Ji Woong is taking Yuri out again the man suddenly exclaimed
The woman just chuckled
Go along, help them out. Ji Woong is hopeless when it comes to dates
Thats my grandson! the man cheered as he focused attention elsewhere
The woman sighed as she looked down at Taeyeon and Tiffany still hugging
I wish you well she said as she blew a kiss towards their direction
Taeyeon-ah Saranghae the woman heard Tiffanys voice blow with the wind
Thats my girl the woman cheered as she left the two alone
*Thats one less dork I have to watch over in heaven now* she chuckled to herself
